The DoEd Common Core has been tried. But the only outcome appears to be a giant pile of standardized tests, designed to torment children and teachers alike in pursuit of some ephemeral national Good Education Score Card.
I'm not sure I want to see education in Massachusetts or Minnesota fall victim to whatever Betsy DeVos cooks up during her next term as Education Secretary.
Yeah that was all garbage. Bush created a distraction needed from all the heinous shit he was doing overseas. I don't look at that shitshow as a model for future reform.
It wasn't just Bush. Obama was a big supporter of Michelle Rhee, during the 2008 DC School takeover and privatization plan.
I don't look for it, but I do see it. Houston ISD is currently being gutted in the same manner as the DC system 16 years ago.
