Prize Winning Teacher Trashes Common Core

Prize Winning Teacher Trashes Common Core

Guaranteed CNN would have never had her on if they knew her view.

A quiet rebellion is taking place in the school system. Many teachers are standing up to the Common Core standards and rebelling against the national standards. No example could be more prominent than the first ever Global Teacher Prize winner trashing Common Core on live television.

Nancy Atwell won the first ever Global Teacher Prize, described by many as the Nobel Prize for teachers, and a million dollars for her work in teaching students. She gave the prize money to the school that she founded in 1990 to update the school and equipment, saying she had everything she needed in her work as a teacher. But what’s even more shocking are the comments she had to say about Common Core.
