"an absurdist play"Wonder if the play met state federal standards?
None of that happened prior to 2008? Still throwing stuff at the wall to see if it will stick?
The National Education Association, the largest teachers union in the country, made its initial public break with Common Core yesterday.
Common Core has too much backing from the big money men and women funding the left to allow the NEA President to trash it the way that many local teachers have, so instead the union is undermining it the way that it does any reform effort. The course correction being called for locally and nationally is about shifting the balance of educational power. And it's always about power for the left.
On one side is Bill Gates. On the other side is a fifth grade teacher with seniority looking forward to retirement.
But when it comes to Common Core, the unions aren't wrong. Every educational reform is a band aid meant to fix the last reform. Now Common Core already needs fixing.
Teachers unions still remain some of the most reliable donors to the Democratic Party. The NEA was the fourth largest national donor in the last fifteen years with a 61% Democratic tilt. The American Federation of Teachers was in twelfth place with an 89% Democratic tilt. But these days, some teachers unions feel abandoned by a Democratic Party that is treating them like an obstacle to its technocratic progressive program.
Some Republicans, including candidates associated with the Tea Party, have even been courted by teachers unions looking for options.
“The notion that just because you’re a Democrat you can take the teachers’ unions for granted has changed," Jim Reed, of the Illinois Education Association, warned.
Common Core is just another shot in the left's educational civil war and it's a war that conservatives should take advantage of.

Ms Tree said:If you read the TX case the main reason the monument was not removed was due to the fact that it was viewed as an historical monument and it's presence was not contested for a majority of the time it was there. Breyer also mentions the secular nature of the group who donated as well as the location of the monument.
La Li Lu Le Lo said:Are you saying the monument is part of American history, heritage, and culture? I knew you would flip-flip given enough time. That is what the left does.
Learn how to construct a sentence, it's a historical monument not "an historical monument", its not "it's", the majority not "a majority", has been there not "was there". I do not blame you for your apparent lack of education; I blame the socialized schools that educated you.
