Ohio House Ed Committee Chair Says He’ll Fight for the Common Core “Kicking and Screaming”
Some schools are already teaching the Common Core curriculum, and using Common Core text books like this one.
The chair of the Ohio House Education Committee says he’ll fight “kicking and screaming” any effort to repeal the Common Core, a new set of expectations for what students should know and be able to do in math and English at each grade level.
Rep. Gerald Steblelton tells Gongwer News Service he is a strong supporter of the Common Core:
When asked if it is possible the General Assembly could decide to repeal the standards, Mr. Stebelton said, “Possibilities are always there, but this chairman of this committee is not going to do that.”
