Wow. Why pay big bucks for Catholic school if your kids will just be dumbed down and brainwashed like the regular public school kids?

I agree. That is exactly what I told the mom. The school is obviously seeing Common Core as a plus, just as many private schools like to say their teachers are “state certified”. But in accepting the Common Core curriculum, they are giving up even more autonomy and removing distinctions between private and public schools, which in the end removes the reason for paying out the big bucks for private education when one can get it for free.

The Catholic Schools in the Philadelphia archdiocese are Common Core.
