COMMON CORE CURRICULUM & Education Reform

This new education standard from Washington has caused a lot of controversy. In our 1st in a series of lectures, we have invited Mr. Jamie Gass of the Pioneer Institute to give a presentation on the topic. You can partake on the issue by asking your questions, and adding to the discussion. Meet us at the Needham Public Library on Monday Oct. 28th from 7 to 8pm.  Light Refreshments will be served
 
Mr Gass is the Pioneer Institute's Director of the Center for School Reform.  He is considered an authority on the subject, with over 20 yrs experience including working with BU's partnership with the Chelsea Public Schools.  He has appeared on various Boston media such as WBZ, WRKO, WGBH, and WBUR.  His op-eds are in various Mass. newspapers, as well as The Wall Street Journal.
