Arne Duncan will never get it but he actually helped kill Common Core in Oklahoma by his racist remark about suburban white moms.
“U. S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan…”
Ummm, I thought these were STATE standards. What’s the federal government doing, even commenting on the issue? They have nothing to do with CC, right?
I could be wrong, but I don’t recall seeing education as a delegated power.
