I have an 8 yo going through the common core transition now. What I would recommend parents do is teach the traditional fundamentals after school. Give your kid

  I'd recommend you send your kids to a school with a sane curriculum. The only thing these public school morons will understand is when they start losing students (and corresponding dollars that go along with that). The public school system here is up in arms about a quite limited voucher program, because their funding is based on the number of bodies in the classroom. So they see it as taking "their" money, rather than thinking "I wonder why those parents don't want their kids to go to our schools."

    That's a great idea, but with two kids in grade school, the local private schools would cost me about $30k per year. I would rather invest 15 minutes a day with augmenting what they are doing in the classroom. If you have the resources to go private, more power to you.
