EdNC. Essential education news. Important stories. Your voice.

Thursday, February 12, 2015

Next week, EdNC will be running perspectives on the Common Core standards.

The Hechinger Report has invited two principals to write a weekly column that will examine the Common Core through the eyes of those who have lived it. Carol Burris is the principal of South Side High School in the Rockville Centre School District in New York. Jayne Ellspermann is principal of West Port High School in Ocala, Florida. The column will take the format of letters written between Burris and Ellspermann, inspired in part by the long-running Education Week column, “Bridging Differences.”

Here is the first letter: Common Core will lead to misery, not higher achievement

 

These are the sources EdNC checks every day: The New York Times, The 74, Education Week, The NC Tribune, The Insider, The News & Observer, The Charlotte Observer, WUNC, WFAE, Brookings, Education Commission of the States, and DPI’s News. A cross section of diverse sources are checked weekly and monthly. If you have an article you think needs to be included, email [email protected].
