Many parents think if they put their children in private school or homeschool they will all be able to hide from the Common Core State Standards. Sorry folks. David Coleman, who said no cares about your student’s narrative writing http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pu6lin88YXU, wasn’t only the architect of the standards, he moved over to become president of the College Board. The ACT and SAT college entrance tests will be aligned to the CCSS. So if you think you can help your children escape CCSS you can’t http://www.ksl.com/?sid=26810448.
Any student who wants to go to college will need to take the ACT or the SAT. So it won’t really matter where your child goes to school. Common Core State Standards are here, there and EVERYWHERE! You can run but you can’t hide.
I would be interested in hearing from parents whose children are working on CCSS in their private or home school, or teachers who must teach CCSS in their private schools. How is it working out?
