Common core is setting our kids up for failure.

This is not teaching our kids, it is confusing them, the teachers and the parents. Stick with what Works!

It's kinda like beating around the bush when you should just get to the point. Meaning....stop teaching the long ways around things and teach straight to the point

I work along side several engineers (very strong mathameticians) and they ALL agree common core math is wrong and will not go in the workplace.

It's sad when parents can't help their children with math homework. I am a nurse and can't make any sense of 2nd grade math. Kids should just know their math facts and not have to explain how they know the answers.

I will not vote for or support anyone who is for Common Core in my parish or state. This is the worst thing to infect our country since Obama.

CCSI was written by inexperienced people with no credentials and it is a rewriting of other failed programs such as outcome based education. It was hoisted onto states through "bribery" with Race to the Top taxpayer dollars. It is an attempt to frustrate children so much, they cannot possibly learn. A question on CC homework for an 8 year old: Solve the following problem using the vertical written algorithm, your place value chart and number disks. Bundle a ten or hundred when necessary. Show your work. 42+79 Why not just say 42+79=? instead of scaring the poor child and parent with all the algorithm, chart, number disk nonsense that you must include to get the answer correct?!!! Do NOT give away our state sovereignty by caving to receive federal dollars. Insist the Feds give us our taxpayer dollars with no strings attached and let us decide what we will teach our children locally and with parental involvement! Children belong to their parents, NOT the government!!

Education is about creating free minds not manning the workforce.
