Diane Ravitch brings a voice of healthy criticism regarding our current educational system

At a recent lunch with many current and retired teachers, the topic of Common Core came up, again.  One resource Specialist discussed Diane Ravitch.

Here are some of our writings, and opinions, and thoughts.  What do you think?

I believe in order for us to have a healthy, vibrant educational system, we need to have a safe space for critical voices.  Through my years of teaching, not every program works for every child.    I think every teacher who has taught for over a year would agree with that basic assumption.  Yet, we need to look at whether Common Core is working for enough of our children?  What do you think?
