Common Core Testing: Do What It Takes Before High Stakes!
National Day of Action, Thursday, May 9, 2013--Wear Blue to Show Support!
The AFT is calling for a national day of action on the Common Core tomorrow, Thursday, May 9.
Please stand with us and wear blue to show your support for the proper implementation of the Common Core standards.
This moratorium must remain in place until states and districts have worked intensively with teachers and school staff to properly implement the standards through a high-quality curriculum, in-depth professional development, parent and community engagement, and field-testing of assessment tools around the standards. Don't forget to wear blue tomorrow, Thursday, May 9, and send your photos to photos@aft.org. Thank you in advance for your support!
