Congress just passsed the most massive federal education bill to be introduced in 10 years, a reauthorization of No Child Left Behind. While it's proponents are saying glowing things about the updated law, analysis already indicates it's not what many would have us believe. Now, more than ever, solid facts, incisive perspective, and opportunities for open, honest dialogue are of the essence. Parents, teachers, and others who care about education will be seeking them.

Common Ground on Common Core delivers

...in every respect.

The volume's 18 highly engaging essays are written by top education experts and activists, covering multiple aspects of the dangerous false reforms unfolding in K-12 education--all in plain language that anyone can understand.
