Common Core is loaded with hidden agendas, and is not useful as practical. There are proven ways to get better results that we are experiencing.

I am working this summer on the Common Core workbooks for Math and Reading. WOW, this is crazy. I can answer a Math problem in my head in less then a minute but this draw a picture of this math situation is beyond over thinking! 3 x 4 = 12, we don't need to know why or how you got there, it is the correct answer!

We are ready for change to our education standards. Kids don't learn by rote memorization and drilling. They learn from experiencing the world, playing with each other, making art, exploring with adults who care, asking questions. Stop Common Core.

Kindergarten and 3rd grade common core math homework is frustrating not only for kids but also their parents. The word problems are too vague, and are a waste of time.

Stop Common Core in Oregon! Use tools that don't line the pockets of a few people at taxpayer's expense!

This kind of education is NOT good for our children. Stop the illogical dumbing down of our children! Mediocrity is NOT how we launch future doctors, engineers, nurses, etc.

Federal government: get out of our way. This program will dumb-down our children. This is a one size fits all program. Let the local governments (state, county, city) decide what children learn. This will also make it near impossible for local school districts to control costs. PLEASE GET RID OF COMMON CORE (and don't rename it something else to try to pull a fast one on us.)

Stop teaching kids about bogus climate change/global warming, socialist and progressive agendas, and the like.

Just another ongoing intrusion by the Federal government into our lives. There is no constitutional right for federal control of the education system (AKA government schooling). Stop this ans all unconstitutional atrocities to our God given freedoms.

It de-personalizes learning and turns teachers into robots when it's run at a federel level. Instead of educating for the sake of teaching children, it becomes a contest to get the highest school scores.

Common Core exposes children to developmentally inappropriate material.Get rid of Common Core and return the control of educational standards to our state.
