If you’re a regular visitor to this blog or this site, you’re probably well acquainted with Common Core. And that puts you in the minority, according to a new Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll. The sobering results of this survey of 1,025 parents:

• Fifty-two percent of parents said they’d heard “only a little” or “nothing at all” about the controversial math and English language arts standards.
• About a quarter said they’d heard “a lot” about the standards.
• About 22 percent said they’d heard a “moderate amount” about them.
• About a third of parents were unsure whether their state was among the 45 adopting Common Core.

Question: Do most of your friends know what Common Core is?
