Nevadans Against Common Core (Nevada Academic Content Standards)

Private and home school students do not escape cc

All college bound students will be affected by CC

When the architect of CC became the president of The College Board, which owns the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) and the high school Advanced Placement (AP) classes, he said he WANTS THE SAT TO REFLECT COMMON CORE,

In May 2014 it was announced THE SAT WILL BE 'DUMBED DOWN' TO ALIGN WITH CC STARTING IN 2016.

From this Washington Post article titled, How Common Core could affect every state - even those that reject it. "STUDENTS IN EVERY STATE TAKE THE HIGH-STAKES COLLEGE ADMISSIONS EXAMS, THE SAT AND THE ACT, AS WELL AS THE NEWLY DESIGNED GED, THE HIGH SCHOOL EQUIVALENCY TEST USED AS AN ALTERNATIVE WAY TO GET A HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA. AND ALL OF THOSE EXAMS ARE GOING TO BE ALIGNED TO THE COMMON CORE STANDARDS, AT LEAST THAT IS WHAT THEIR RESPECTIVE OWNERS SAY. DAVID COLEMAN, ONE OF THE CO-AUTHORS OF THE COMMON CORE ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS STANDARDS AND NOW THE HEAD OF THE COLLEGE BOARD, WHICH OWNS THE SAT, HAS SAID THAT THE EXAM WILL BE CORE-ALIGNED, THOUGH WHEN IS NOT KNOWN. ACT, THE ORGANIZATION THAT OWNS THE ACT TEST, IS AN “ACTIVE PARTNER” WITH THE CORE INITIATIVE AND SAYS THAT THE EXAM IS ALREADY ALIGNED TO THE STANDARDS. MEANWHILE, THE FOR-PROFIT CORPORATION OWNED JOINTLY BY PEARSON AND THE AMERICAN COUNCIL ON EDUCATION THAT IS DEVELOPING THE NEW GED SAYS IT, TOO, WILL BE ALIGNED TO THE CORE WHEN IT IS UNVEILED NEXT YEAR."

All the Advanced Placement (AP) classes will be changed to align with CC.

Since the ACT, SAT and all AP classes are aligned with CC, any student taking any of these is impacted by CC.

Since CC is in place in about 43 states, if it is not stopped or removed from several more states it will become difficult to find curriculum not aligned with CC.
