The goals aren’t worthy either.
The goal to have a baseline of knowledge when a kid finishes high school, and every grade for that matter, is a decent goal. The problem is what they are teaching and how they insist it be done.
CC has put more kids into homeschooling than anything else. It’s a shame too because public school is where kids learn to socialize, get into sports and other team building activities, etc. etc.
CC has ruined it all.
