Union Joins Opposition to Common Core National Standards and Tests

The Foundry reports:

The Common Core State Standards are causing major discontent across the ideological spectrum. The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) has joined groups like the Republican National Committee, the American Association of Christian Schools, the Home School Legal Defense Association, Tea Party groups, public policy organizations, and parents across the country in expressing concerns about Common Core national standards. AFT president Randi Weingarten addressed her home state of New York last week calling for a halt in standards implementation.

It's time to separate school from state.
