This week Lieutenant Governor Tim Griffin announced plans for the Governor’s Council on Common Core Review to tour the state to hear from Arkansans about Common Core.
According to Lt. Governor Griffin, the council will spend approximately 60 hours listening to Arkansans at 9 stops over the course of 8 weeks. The council also has several hearing scheduled in Little Rock regarding Common Core.
This is an opportunity for all Arkansans to voice their opinions on Common Core to members of the Governor’s Council on Common Core Review. If you would like to make your position on Common Core known, you may want to make plans to attend one of these meetings.
