[quote=Anonymous]I have three kids in dcps. In the “good schools” too. I have seen lower standards each year. Honestly, it started with the pandemic with schools closed for more than a year. It’s just been dumbing down and more dumbing down every year. This latest change with the CommonLit pilot is just the last straw. So sick of these short-sighted and lazy decisions that affect education of so many kids in the district. Why is it difficult to take the best parts of the CommonLit curriculum and package it with novel studies and writing and create a more well rounded ELA curriculum? We have a bunch of people in dcps central whose job is to ensure education standards are being met who apparently can’t do this and instead farm it out to a so called “non-profit” like CommonLit. The founder and CEO of CommonLit barely has any teaching experience and makes almost $400k from this venture. Sick to my stomach. [/quote]
