Interesting article about the uproar over Common Core. The article correctly points out that Glenn Beck is totally wrong when he says liberals are pushing Common Core down our throats. The new standards had bipartisan support. And the 45 states that have so far adopted the Common Core standards chose voluntarily to do so.I don't believe that Common Core is some kind of panacea that will fix our schools, but I find the Tea Party line, that Common Core is an example of the federal government overstepping its bounds, to be off base.
