Support House Bill 2165! Eliminate Common Core in Washington State
February 22, 2015
The Washington State House of Representatives now has a bill to eliminate the Common Core!
House Bill 2165, sponsored by Representative Elizabeth Scott, calls for a revision of the Essential Academic Learning Requirements (EALRs) such that they do NOT align with the Common Core, and it calls for Washington to withdraw from the Smarter Balanced Assessments Consortium.
The happy news is that bills such as this one and Senate Bill 6030 against the Common Core, will be alive for two years. Even though the bills may not become law during this session, they still have a chance next year.
