Massive Union Presence Expected at March on Washington
AFT and AFT-Maryland invite members to participate in the 2013 March on Washington, Saturday, August 24th. The nation’s unions will be represented en mass at the August 24th March on Washington. As in 1963, the nation’s workers will emphasize the need for jobs, justice, and freedom. Marchers will gather at the Lincoln Memorial on the National Mall and proceed to the new monument that honors Martin Luther King, Jr., the slain civil rights leader who galvanized marchers in 1963 with his “I Have A Dream” speech.

An Alternative Snap-Shot of Common Core Standards
WIth all the recent talk about how the CCSS will move us away from fact-driven teaching, learning and testing, this article might give us pause to reconsider where we are heading. Essentially, if the testing and assessments do not follow along with the new standards, we will find ourselves in the same spot we are currently in. It is not encourageing to realize who is making the tests. Additionally, if the tests are too difficult, and the early indication is that they will be difficult, then students scores will plummet. I think we all know who will be blamed if that happens.
