Common Core Boosters Trying to Scare States into Keeping National Standards

 

Last year wasn’t a good year for Common Core, and the myth-makers are already hard at work publishing some new spin, but first let’s review what we’ve learned over the past five years. Common Core national standards are:

• Costly (here, here, and here)
• Weak (here and here)
• Intrusive (here)
• Politicized (here)
• Anything but “voluntary” (here, here, here, here, here, and here)
• Unconstitutional (here, here, here, here, and here)

In short, the more parents and taxpayers learn about it, the less they like it, and a growing number of states are looking for the nearest exit, including Indiana, along with South Carolina, Missouri, and Oklahoma.
