NY started using the "official" tests last year. 70 percent bombed them, even after being talk "Common Core" standards.

N.C. test results using official tests come out next week -- and more than half the kids failed.

Kentucky has release two rounds of official testing: Both major bombings.  A small percentage did better this year over last, but just think about it: For TWO YEARS these kids have been taught Common Core drivel, and most are getting it.

Do you have citations for these claims?

NY is part of the PARCC consortium. PARCC assessments aren't due to be implemented until 2014-15.

Where have YOU been? It's all over the NY news. NY and Kentucky took the early PARCC tests. Why do you think they are ready to run the head of education out of the state?
