This article explains the changes that have are taking place in the curriculum standards throughout the state. Oregon, along with 43 other states, has voted to use Common Core standards which is an attempt to create a national curriculum. There are a lot of mixed feelings about these changes. The intended audience for this article the general public, but certainly appeals most to educators and parents of school aged children. These new standards are extremely important to understand so that we can best support our students. I for one am looking forward to the possibilities and opportunities that these new standards creating for students.
