As fed-up parents across the nation voice their staunch
opposition to federal Common Core standards, several states are trying a new
approach to appease them… by just changing the name in a “re-branding” effort.
In Iowa , Common Core is now referred to as “The Iowa Core” and as “Next Generation
Sunshine State Standards” in Florida .
Further, Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer signed an executive order recently to scrub
the “Common Core” name from their math and reading standards. Louisiana is also reportedly considering a
name change.
