Common Core ping, if there is one yet. Sorry that this is a little late, I just found out about it. Florida will take back the education of its children one district at a time.

Lee Schools tested 99 percent of third graders last year. The state requires 95 percent be tested.

if parents have the right to opt out of testing, how can the state require 95 percent of students to be tested? what if every parent rightfully opted out of testing?

"I think two plus two is five."

"I think I will play in the mud in my dress up clothes."

"I think I will bite Billy's finger because he stuck out his tongue at me."

"I think mustard & ketchup will look really cool squirted on the living room rug."

"I think My Little Pony's cousin, the Unicorn, told me to get Daddy's keys and drive the car to see Grandma."

”We're telling these kids what to think. We're not letting them do their own thinking,” Armstrong said.

It is called "education" and "raising a child properly".

(BTW, this is NOT an endorsement of Common Core.)
