Common core a bad idea

First Posted: 1/30/2015

The common core curriculum is wrong on so many different levels. I have found common core has drastically changed the way our children learn math. It takes a simple math problem and adds several steps.

Children are constantly taking tests and assessments. These tests are taking away educational time from our children. These tests are not even a grade on their report card.

Common core is federally mandated and money driven. A few states have already repealed common core. If you want to help stop common core get involved. Write or call Governor Kasich and all your state representatives.
