This curriculum was NOT researched, tested, or benchmarked against international standards. The only math educator that had any involvement in the validation of the standards is Dr. R. James Milgram, who refused to sign off on them because the content will cause students to be "two years behind international standards by grade 8 and fall further behind in grades 8-12." Our children are not lab experiments and their lives should not be used to haphazardly test curriculum that has no proof of success. The CC is damaging their confidence and extinguishing their passion for learning. The parents will not stand by and watch their children's futures be threatened!!!
