Officials: Common Core Here To Stay
Item: State officials: Common Core here to stay/Maureen Dolan, Coeur d'Alene Press
More Info: Most top education officials in states that have adopted the Common Core standards don't think resistance to the math and English benchmarks will derail the effort, according to a new survey. Released last week by the Center for Education Policy, a nonpartisan research organization at George Washington University, the survey also found that a majority of state education leaders would welcome federal aid, including funding, to help implement the standards. Education officials in 40 of the 45 states that have adopted the core standards participated in the poll, although the report did not release the names of the states. Idaho's state education department was one of the participating agencies.
Question: Will efforts to derail Common Core stands work in Idaho?
