COMMON CORE INSTRUCTION DRIVEN BY PARCC TESTING

As has been stated for over a year, AND during the OCT, 2013 hearings, AND during the SB619 hearings; the goal of the assessments is to drive curriculum per the CEO of PARCC.

In response to PARCC’s press release, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal’s (R) website published the following statement:

The proponents of Common Core and PARCC continue to insist that tests and standards are not about curriculum, but that’s a ruse. Teachers already know that what is tested at the end of the year is what is taught in classrooms throughout the year. PARCC may not mandate one textbook or one pacing guide, but the CEO of the federally funded PARCC has admitted one thing: PARCC controls instruction and instruction is curriculum.
