PRAISE FOR THE CORE KNOWLEDGE SERIES
“A new vision for the education of America is being tested in Florida—and it works.”
—Life magazine

—A parent, Florida
“Core Knowledge has increased the enthusiasm and commitment of our teachers, and our rising standardized test scores show that the program is effective.”
—Gina M. McKinnon, PDC K-6,
Mystic Valley Regional Charter School, Malden, Massachusetts
