9:11    You are spot on.  I am also a teacher and have seen this path several times before (I am 55 years old feeling very sad about what continues to happen).

The poster at 8:41 who said the anti CC people are a bunch of extreme right wingers is way off base.  None of the reasons he gives are reasons that many people are against the testing.  They are against it for a plain and simple reason:  it just doesn't help anyone at all.  [/quote]

Opposition to Common Core is a Tea Party, right-wing thing. Funded by the Koch Brothers. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2014/08/13/koch-brothers-anti-common-core-spending/14018753/

Any liberal who jumped on the badwagon is gullible as shit.

Once you set standards, which are appropriate, you need tests to be sure the standards are learned. Hence, PARCC.. Yes, they help everyone -- they help schools know whether the kids are learning what they are supposed to be learning. Only bad teachers fear PARCC.

Every other country in the world does capstone testing. What do you think A-levels/O-levels are in Great Britain? [/quote]
