Watching the DESE Countdown Clock. Citizens Still Waiting for Answers to Questions from the May 2 Hearings.
Time elapsed since DESE Common Core May 2 meetings:
We've installed a DESE clock to determine how long citizens have to wait for the answers to questions DESE promised to answer from its May 2 Common Core standards statewide meetings. Citizens were told questions/answers would be listed within a week on the DESE website. In fact, the commissioner referred legislators many times to use the DESE website for their various questions in the House Education Committee hearing on May 13, rather than answer their questions at the hearing. But what happens when the answers to your questions aren't listed because DESE refuses to even entertain the question?
Here's what you find when you link to DESE's site looking for answers to questions from the Common Core
