Montana Common Core State Standards

Last week our guest, Kriss Wolf did open a can of worms. The controversial  Common Core State Standards. Kriss generated a lot of interest and requests for more information, especially its status here in Montana. One such contact was from Tim Ravndal an activist from Townsend MT. Tim agreed to be our guest this Thursday nite.

Tim has been involved extensively with the Common Core State Standards Initiative (CCSSI)  both at the legislative and local levels.  It's mind boggling to hear that only 1 in 10 people in MT have even heard of Common Core.  The fact that the MT legislature agreed to fund it, indicates that the 1 in 10 stats apparently also applied to the legislators. 

Tim has followed the money on this to special interest groups that lead to George Soros and Bill Gates.  The ties to Agenda 21 are also very clear. Tim will sort it all out for us and answer your questions and comments.

By the way, here's just a few of the many excellent links for further Common Core references.
