But you do have Kentucky and New York -- and their kids are doing dismally with the standards. In Kentucky after 4 FRIGGING YEARS! That's their entire high school experience shot to hell. [/quote]

No, they're doing dismally on the tests, according to cut scores which Diane Ravitch says are deliberately set so that most students fail.

By the way, how well were they doing before adoption of the Common Core standards? Was everything was fine and dandy in Kentucky and New York schools, until the Common Core standards came along to ruin everything?[/quote]

Where is her evidence that they were "deliberately set so that most student fail?"  For her to be saying that, she would have to have some form of documentation from the people who set the cut scores to back it up, internal emails, memos...  So where is it?  Anyone?  Anyone?  Bueller?   Where is the documentation that the claims about this grand CC conspiracy are real?[/quote]

Proof is in the Education Week story. It's been linked to several times.[/quote]
