David Craig On U.S. Dept of Education's Warning Shot to Indiana on Common Core

David Craig spent 34 years as an assistant principal and teacher in Maryland's public schools.  The following is an excerpt from his article in Human Events today about the problems with Common Core and how the U.S. Dept. of Education is penalizing Indiana for opting-out.

"What Indiana Governor Pence needs now, and what my home state of Maryland urgently needs, is to give control to teachers in the classroom. Maryland has rushed head first to adopt every federal program in the last several years including Obamacare, Common Core and EPA stormwater regulations, to name a few. The results are always the same – poor execution, millions of dollars wasted and excessive regulation and taxes."
