[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]It's the school's responsibility to make sure kids are *not* graduating without being able to read at a HS level.[/quote] Agree. But, that would not comply with the "send everyone to college" ideal.[/quote] But this is actually an argument FOR the Common Core standards -- or, in any case, an argument against an argument against the Common Core standards. One reason people are saying that the Common Core standards are bad is because they will reduce the high school graduation rate, because students who are currently graduating from high school even though they can't read at a high-school level will no longer be allowed to graduate from high school. I'm starting to think that where I see this http://www.corestandards.org/read-the-standards/ opponents of the Common Core standards, collectively, see something like this http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rorschach_test#mediaviewer/File:Rorschach_blot_08.jpg[/quote]
