The Center of Common Core

The "Common Core"curriculum is another of the periodic educational fads foisted on public school parents. It has been quite controversial and really does not encourage acceptance when it makes recommendations like reading Dreaming in Cuban for its high school English curriculum. I will let you read the enclosed Breitbart article for the details, but suffice it to say that adding officially-sanctioned fuel to the fires of already horny high schoolers does not sound like wise policy to me. And did I mention that a Stanford math professor quit the math panel because the proposed "product" wasn't too interested in correct answers? How do you feel about the number 12?
