For the Children or the Department of Education?

Missouri Education Watchdog 2011


Nationalized Education in America


States were “nudged” to adopt in order to apply for the federal Race to the Top (RTTT) grant program.

Most states adopted BEFORE the final standards were even written and reviewed.

Once adopted, states must utilize the consortium created national assessments that align to the common core standards.

States must adopt 100% of the new standards and may only add 15% of local standards.


The adoption of the common core standards is the vehicle to usher in the requirement of the longitudinal data systems.


What is an educational longitudinal data system?

What educational and non-educational data is recorded?

What is the goal for a centralized longitudinal data system? P20 pipeline?

Which agencies receive workforce data from educational data sets?

Is the Federal Government going to “nudge” students into a pre-determined career path?
