If the leadership in a business dragged it's sales down to the bottom among its' competitors, we can be certain those responsible would be fired immediately! And they only are dealing with money losses. But when the Common Core advocates in Alabama education plunge our children's educational achievements from 25th in the nation to number 50 at the very bottom, they are not canned, they are allowed to remain to conduct other harmful experiments on our children. After all, they're only children and are helpless to change anything. It's only their lives and their futures we're talking about. Does this make sense? Has everybody lost their minds? These are children, not laboratory rats! Children learn what they are taught and the scores reflect what they've been taught. Our children have unlimited untapped potential for greatness because they were created by God in His own image and likeness but Common Core is keeping a lid on it or snuffing it out!
Is the political leadership off the hook? Oh, no they are not! The people of Alabama have written, called, held meetings and rallies, and begged our legislators to support a bill to stop Common Core and return to traditional education, which was used to improve our test scores to 25th in the nation! Did they do it? No. Their campaign contributions would dry up from the leadership in the Business Council of Alabama. The BCA wants a docile and trained workforce! But parents want their children to live up to their God-given potential so that His plan and will for them can be fulfilled.
We still have a Stop Common Core bill which will be introduced in the House by Representative Barry Moore this session. It is our last chance to stop Common Core in Alabama this year. Please contact him and give him your support if you don't want our children to stay # 50th in the nation.
