Board Workshop Today on Common Core
Board Workshop Today on Common Core
“Why is Gov. Scott doing this?”
Today at 9:00am begins a School Board workshop and board meeting which includes conversation about Common Core. With yesterday’s announcement by Florida’s Governor Rick Scott that he is requesting that Florida withdraw from using the Common Core assessment PARCC test and with Gov. Scott’s multiple letters which seem to indicate that the Common Core standards that his office pushed and he now seems against, many questions are unanswered at this time. It appears Florida’s entire transition to Common Core standards that are were passed into law in 2013 legislative session, which were intended for career and job readiness, as well as who’s student assessment data counts towards 50% of a teachers evaluation is all up in the air.
Hopefully we will learn more today.
