“What I find particularly disgusting is that teachers aren’t UP IN ARMS opposed to Common Core and mandated testing.”
Although many I know are sick to death of it all, I’m not sure what they can do to fight it - what power do they have?
My niece’s solution for her family was to give up her teaching position at a local elementary, and she is now home schooling, starting this year.
Proud of her!
Also, lefty organizations like the NEA like socialist solutions.
