Btw, with this Common Core bullsh!t, there are more lies coming......

"" As the grassroots revolt against Common Core
grows stronger, attention to lessons contained
in textbooks approved for use within the
Common Core curricula is increasing, as well.
One of the chief criticisms of the standards
mandated as part of the Common Core
education program is that it is one-size-fits-
all, federally funded, and permissive of
fundamental errors that affect the quality of
education of students.
Such errors include those found in history
textbooks approved by the Common Core
State Standards Initiative — the official name
of the scholastic standards copyrighted by the
Washington, D.C.-based National Governors
Association (NGA) and the Council of Chief
State School Officers (CCSSO).
In a textbook approved by Common Core for
use by students studying for the Advanced
Placement (AP) history exam, the Second
Amendment is defined this way : "The Second
Amendment: The people have the right to keep
and bear arms in a state militia.""

Get on welfare and food stamps? IMO, grades and scores are one and the same.....they measure how well someone has prepared and how much hard work theyve put in.....both great life lessons. As far as giving it your all and still losing goes....it also teaches a great life lesson.....get up, dust yourself off, and get better for the next game or test or whatever.
