To have your schools go back to the way they were? Or was it harmful? Not sure I understand school within a school.

I'm deeply opposed to Common Core and interested in what Gates is doing to our schools, looking at ways to fight it in our local district...wondering how people do things differently and if his money pulling out is really bad, really good, or what.

Thanks!
