CURE promotes academic excellence for children in Washington State by researching educational issues, such as Career Pathways (School-to-Work), No Child Left Behind, Certificate of Academic Achievement, Performance-Based Education (also known as Standards-based Education or OBE-Outcome Based Education), data-collection, and assessments. In the last few years these programs and policies have been brought together under the federal Race to the Top initiative of which the Common Core State Standards are the most well-known component.
We offer the articles, essays, and commentaries on this website to help you understand what is happening in education today.
We are glad that recently many new parent and citizen groups have sprung up in almost every state, with similar goals of becoming informed and then informing others of education problems which urgently need repair. Some of the new groups even have similar names. Our group has been active since the mid 1990’s. We work independently of any other group, but we are happy to share information, ideas, and encouragement with the other groups, and we may cooperate on certain projects or issues.
