Good Morning from Colorado,
Wouldn't
you know it...as soon as I leave town on business the Senate Education
Committee finally puts HB 2047 which intends to change the state testing
standards from the failed A.I.M.S. system to the yet to be determined
P.A.R.C.C. system intended to test the Federal Government sponsored
Common Core National (and International) "Standards". This without the
benefit of any input from the Parents, Teachers, 'Independent" School
Boards, the Community at large...anyone other than a hand full of so
called Educational Elite who have determined what is best for your
children, grand children and mine.
To
render Common Core ineffective we must kill the testing arm P.A.R.C.C.
The House voted in favor of this bill not really understanding the
'intended' consequences. These consequences are almost too numerous to
mention but the most simple one is the shear cost of Common Core which
no one has even begun to attack.
My
request is for you all to try to attend the Senate Hearing now
scheduled for Thursday Morning the 21st at 8:30 AM in SHR 1.
Thanks
and I will be traveling back earlier than I had planned to specifically
attend this one meeting...I consider it that important.
Wes
