Learn the Whole Story of the Common Core Standards
Common Core Standards are a set of Math and English/Language Arts Standards that have currently been adopted by 46 states & the District of Columbia.
Here are some facts:
- It ignores your child’s uniqueness
- It strips away local control of education…leaving parents, teachers and local schools no say about children’s education
- Children are put in a National database for cradle to grave tracking…without parental notification or consent
- Nationalizes education which violates the 10th Amendment and 3 federal laws
- It will prepare your child for technical school, but not all 4 year colleges
- Testing will not measure what children KNOW, but what they think, their beliefs, attitudes, habits and actions
- Math standard: Children will be 2 years behind their International peers by 7th grade. Common Core Math standards are lower than our old standards
- English Language Arts: Reading levels are lowered to 8th grade level for 12th grade students
- Teaching methods are unproven, untested and align with UN goal of global citizenship
