[quote=Anonymous]I don't know enough about common core to give much of an opinion. Certainly seems like it has become overly politicized. I do think, however, that we need to have some sort of national standard to evaluate how our schools are performing. Just how much testing and common curriculum that should entail is debateable, but I do not understand some of the resistance to some sort of way of seeing how schools and children are performing on a national level. Everytime people get into a greatschools debate on this forum, someone will inevitably point out that you can't compare ratings across state lines. In the ever increasingly globalized world in which we live, shouldn't we have some way to quantify how one school stacks up against another school, even in different parts of the country? [/quote]
