Military Members Lend Support to Common Core | WABE 90.1 FM

A group of retired military members gathered at the State Capitol Tuesday to show support for the Common Core education standards. Georgia has invested plenty of time and money in the standards’ implementation. But a bill that cleared the state Senate puts Georgia’s future participation in the Common Core in question.

Major General Ronald Johnson said children of service men and women attend between six and nine different schools during their elementary years. He says before 45 states agreed to adopt the Common Core, that was a hardship for children in military families.
