“Do Not Give in to Common Core Standards”

“Do Not Give in to Common Core Standards”

Teacher/ columnist and education activist Donna Garner

~~By Donna Garner~~

~~2.20.13~~

 

The public is finally waking up to the dangers of Common Core Standards.  People all over this country are no longer sitting back and blindly allowing the Obama administration to take over their children’s public schools with his social justice agenda. 

 

Information is power.  The better informed the public is, the better able they will be equipped to fend off the Common Core Standards.

 

To help in that effort, I have compiled a list of anti-Common Core Standards resources going all the way back to 12.11.09.  I trust that people will use these resources to help them battle this “monster-takeover” by the federal government of our public school children’s minds and hearts. I have checked these links; and as of this date, they are all active.
