More pressure is mounting locally on national curriculum guidelines known as “Common Core.”
710 KNUS is airing senate testimony given by a mother, Sarah Colburn, with students in the Adams 12 school district. Coburn reads from a book, “The Bluest Eye,” which she says is included in the suggested reading list from Common Core guides.
Below is the second hour of the Dan Caplis Show on 710 KNUS. Colburn’s interview with Caplis begins at 6:25, and the recording of her testimony can be heard starting at the 14:30 mark (with a small introduction of the audio). Warning: The recorded testimony from Colburn includes adult language of a frank sexual nature.
Last week, the Colorado Senate rejected a bill that aimed to slow the implementation of Common Core on a party line vote.
