Repeal Common Core

Ohio Representative Andy Thompson has a Common Core repeal bill ready to introduce in the Ohio House. 

Common core books[notice]CALL TO ACTION:   call your State Representative and ask them to co-sponsor Representative Thompson’s bill.  This is our chance to make a real difference in the fight against Common Core in Ohio. Please encourage your friends and family to call as well. The success of this bill will depend on grassroots activists like you making your voices heard!  Call your representative…[/notice]

Educational decisions should be made locally – Parents, Students, Teachers & LOCAL Schools Boards.  Thompson’s bill mandates Ohio Board of Education shall maintain standards but shall not cede authority to any entity. Read the bill here. There are 17 states with anti-Common Core legislation pending. We want to join this group and save our children and our country from this top down approach to education which divorces parents and local school boards from determining what’s best for the development of their students & children.

Ohioans Against Common Core has a link to the current version of the bill.
