Many School Board Candidates Win on Anti-Common Core (FL Standards) Platform or Concerns about Testing

November, 2014

Many Florida School Board candidates won election or re-election after publicy opposing Common Core (rebranded as the Florida Standards) or opposing the accompanying high stakes testing regime.  FSCCC congratulates these winners and thanks all the candidates who ran on this platform to protect the hearts and minds of our children, as well as all of you for supporting them.  We look forward to working together to remove the scourge of Common Core from Florida and our nation.  Here is the list, which is not complete:
