Common Core is NOT good for our children! I do not support it one bit!

To my knowledge, Common Core was set up by the administration to make sure all schools were teaching the same curriculum.  Again, I have not read the specific standards, but I have heard comments that there will be no more text books,  students  will be using only computers, that will not be teaching history, math,…

In a review of the Common Core initiatives, it is a continued assessment & implementation of K-12 governing efforts - all schooling, not governmental, groupings directly involved in changes should be commended - the Common Core educational programming for successful outcome has been based upon USA requirements, ie challenging into educational/professional development preparedness - specific assessment time period will permit…

Common Core is a disastrous intrusion into our education system. Some states are now trying it from educators and local school boards. This is a top down, one size fits all approach. Instead of having great innovation from all 50 states and the thousands of local school boards, we have mandates coming from the Federal…
