This Summer's Dog and Pony Shows Commence With A Brazen Common Core Promotion
Governor Snyder announced his 21st Century Education Commission in Executive Order 2016-6 last week. According to his press release:
“The commission will be responsible for analyzing top performing education systems in the nation, identifying issues impacting Michigan’s academic success, and recommending changes to restructure Michigan’s education system.”
You will be forgiven for harboring suspicions that this is another vehicle to promote Common Core. It is. Same type of political сове́т that did such a fine job promoting Proposal 2015-01. Remember TAMC? This playbook is getting old.
