Issue Position

Common Core has significantly impacted our school children, and it has created an environment of distrust between school officials and parents. Many teachers are frustrated with the implementation and strategies of the Common Core standards in the classroom. Parents distrust the program because they do not understand its goals, methods, or results. This is a formula for disaster. Education must be the priority. We may need to go back to the basics as we work together to develop curriculum that can be implemented efficiently and academically sustained. Education is best maintained at the local level.
