Standards Kentucky signed on to may not be so hot

Those new national standards that Kentucky made so much noise about adopting last month don’t measure up to standards in the most demanding states according to a new report from a coalition of think tanks from California and Massachusetts.

A new paper from the the San Francisco- and Sacramento-based Pacific Research Institute and the Pioneer Institute in Massachusetts gives the new Common Core Standards for math a “B-” and the English language arts standard only a “C-.”

Read the press release here. It has a link to the report.
