The Academic Standards Review Commission (ASRC) has failed to come up with recommendations to replace Common Core.
A draft report of the math standards recommended adopting Minnesota's plan, a proven, tested system, which is considered among the best in the nation. But when the Commission voted on December 18, it voted down the plan, and wasted 15 months of work. The ASRC final report adopted a weak watered down substitute.
The ASRC caved to outside groups and education officials and stood by Common Core. The NCAE celebrated. June Atkinson, the aggressive, Progressive Secretary of the Dept. of Public Instruction, has continued to defend Common Core. Over the last year Atkinson served as President of one of the two Washington, DC trade organizations who hold the copyright on the standards.
Tammy Covil, Co-Chair, refused to sign the final report and issued a damning dissent opinion.
The ASRC has not fulfilled the job given to it by the General Assembly in 2014. Senator Jerry Tillman, Co-chair of the Education Committee, was at the Commission final hearing and will not let this rest. Tell him that you support him and that Common Core must be expunged. 919-733-5870. Call Rep. Jamie Boles, 919-733-5903, and Rep. Allen McNeill, 919-715-4946, and tell them to take all measures possible to adopt proven, tested standards and kill Common Core, its untested methods and its get-rich-quick scheme for certain favored companies.
