Washington state accepted the new Common Core national standards for math and English in 2011 and started applying them in schools the following year.
“Citizens Against Common Core” members — one can figure — are not happy about it!
As a service to the public and especially voters — a poll by them was conducted of all 2014 Washington state upcoming candidates in the Legislature and U.S. Senate. It invites them to formulate a short pro or con reasoned opinion about those standards including possible complete rejection!
Each candidate’s updated response — district by district — is to be found here:
