I have researched Common Core rather extensively and getting to the bottom of who did what takes some investigative skill and patience. Fortunately, there are heros and heroines who have done this already and the videos are up on YouTube.

In Texas, they didn't adopt Common Core; however, there is a back-door organization called C-Scope who has privately utilized government employees via a non-profit institution to distribute Common-Core-like materials through an expensive lease agreement, online, to Texas school superintendents, then to the teachers. 80% of Texas public schools are using it in some form or fashion.

When I heard what some of the application was of all this and that it is fundamentally designed to institute the Agenda 21 from the 1992 Rio Summit, I knew I was onto something and I have sought to educate more and more parents in my periphery and sphere of influence. Most people just don't have a clue and I credit our local State Senator who brought this to the forefront on his locally owned radio station where he has a clear and uninterupted voice to his constiuents outside the Texas Beltway.
