Common core is federal

Aren't these school state funded? How can the feds decide to implement a new teaching/testing strategy

The federal government gave $60B to state for elementary and secondary education in 2012

Louisiana received $1.6B

Federal is wrong phrase. National is better.

Again, Republicans came up with the idea that each state having its own standards was stupid and we should all have the same standards, so that kids in Louisiana and Minnesota could move and still be at same level of schooling within each state.

When they cowered to the angry masses, the Feds took over, thereby giving the governors a scapegoat for an idea that is really very good.
