Proposed Changes May Still Be Too Similar to Common Core

Not everybody is happy with the changes that are being proposed for what schoolchildren in Missouri should learn, as they say they’re still too similar to Common Core standards. Supporters of Common Core believe the recommended changes create consistent and rigorous guidelines for student learning. However, opponents believe some of the learning objectives are too complicated, were adopted without enough local input and are still too similar to Common Core. The proposed changes will be presented to the State Board of Education on October 26th.
