"Arne Duncan’s Brave New World: Dept. of Education Wants Your Kid’s Blood Type?"
If this is not "nanny state", I don't know what is.
"The sets include such things as hair color, eye color, gestational age at birth (whether a child was premature or not), blood type, blood test results, birth marks, and even bus stop arrival time."..

Patrick Richardson recently reported this at Pajamas Media.com. He includes the implications that the post heading indicates:
"Forty-one states — plus the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin Islands — have signed on to a set of standards that makes local school boards all but superfluous. State boards of education become redundant as well if curricula are decided at a national level rather than at a state level.
Local control, long a hallmark of the U.S. education system, would be lost to a 'one size fits all' solution imposed by bureaucrats who cannot possibly know the needs or challenges of a local school district."
