There were impossible to access. If a student fell behind, it was impossible to catch up (because of the banding and their fuzzy vague nature).<br /><br />But Wisconsin's public schools used the worst academic standards in America to create the most racist schools in America and school-to-prison pipeline.<br /><br />Common Core is better than what we had and is much more workable than what our college drop-out gov will oversea -- but Wisconsin's crappy public schools are unlikely to deliver them anyhow.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5888314760091661875.post-59951681047566611212014-07-19T11:51:38.202-05:002014-07-19T11:51:38.202-05:00" Walker, if he knows one thing, it is elect..."
