Is the new, online, standardized, test of Common Core principles working? What did we learn from this year’s testing? Please join Assemblyman Rich Gordon and education leaders to explore the very latest results and discuss how we can get the most out of the tests. Among other things, we will delve into technical problems, opt-outs, whether there is evidence that children are mastering Common Core concepts, and what can be improved.
FREE. Please join Assemblyman Rich Gordon and a panel of experts for this important discussion.
