Can we get paper copies to gather signatures for this petition? Many people do not use the internet.

Missouri's legislature has already produced and introduced a bill. At this point, I have not ready it, but will.
As I talked to my legislator last week, he was NOT in favor of CC, but was not sure he would support this new legislation...I need to put my hand on all the material I can that
specifically indicates why it should not be a part of a schools curriculum, not just antidotal data that parents don't like the home work ie, comparisons between NCLB, assesssments, NCLB was also top down...for 14 years and what makes this "top down" worse/
Also, lack of local is most often mentioned, but that ship sailed 14 years ago as well...what can we add to that argument?

I reject Common Core on the grounds that it is government controlled and not locally controlled. Our children's education will not be superior. They will be dumbed down to meet Common Core standards that have not been tested or tried before.

We are a military family coming from VA to MO mid school year. VA did not adopt common core. My kids have struggled since we moved. My "gift", "math wiz", "naturally gifted in math" (all quoted from VA teacher) are now struggling to make sense of nonsense in the way common core teaches. I am a college educated parent and I can't even help my children with simple math the way they are expected to work these problems. This needs to be stopped!

Common core is just another method of governmental control; similar to the Affordable Care Act.

Our children's educations and privacy must be protected. Parents and educators need to make the curriculum decisions, not government.

The teachers should be able to teach what they know kids need to know to make it. Things like balancing a check book, and other banking skills. Basicly life skills. Why waste $$ teaching people things they will never use.

This cannot move forward for the state of Missouri, or for any state in the Union for that matter. Please end this ridiculous program NOW!
