Although it’s not necessarily another reason to homeschool, it is a public school issue.

Imagine the damage already done to those kids who had to sit under that abomination for all those years.

It also affects Parochial schools and homeschool failies. Plus, it affects everyone who takes the SAT, or the ACT. BTW, did you notices today that the SAT is being revised. The head of the SAT is also the head of wringin Common Core standards.

The content of Common Core is truly awaful — highly sexualized — and it creeps into every subject. But what they are doing to the math program is criminal. It will affect all of us, whether we have kids in school, or not. Employers will not be able to hire anyone competent in math, etc., etc.

We've had “outcome based”, “New Math”, “common core”, and a mish mash of other “advanced” curricula, and graduate kids that can't make change, and can't read or write cursive.

I think KY was the first to adopt common core, effectively poisoning the prospect for any other self-respecting state.
