Common Cor critics converge at
Capitol
Wisconsin Radio Network – Bob Hague – 10/4/2013
“We take those standards and
we make local decisions involving our school boards and we determine what’s
best for our children there,” said Neitzke. “These standards are much higher
than anything we’d seen before. They frightened many of us, but now they are
the lowest standards in our district.”
“Any districts adopting
these standards, just practically cannot really personalize it to their
district,” claimed Jeff Horn, a parent in the DeForest school district north of
Madison. “There
just won’t be enough time, and they’re going to get a ding for anything extra
that they do.”
DPI plans to have the
standards will be reflected in a new state standardized test which will be
implemented next year.
“The Smarter Balance
assessment exam, the content of textbooks and the curriculum are all tightly
intertwined to allow strict management of knowledge, which can be easily
hijacked into indoctrination and mind control, or what we used to call
brainwashing,” said Jim Scott, a Common Core critic from Wisconsin Rapids.
