Lt. Gov. Forest unhappy he got what he asked for
The state Department of Public Instruction used 12 boxes of paper to print out material related to the Common Core standards. Forest described his questions as being "dismissed."
Posted — UpdatedThe department replied with "12 boxes containing approximately 40,000 sheets of paper, with a cover letter that did not directly answer any of his 67 questions, but rather referred him to 134 separate websites, linking to over 100 separate pages, 320 separate reports, hundreds of original source documents, 40 presentations, one blog post and a thumb drive."
"Forest’s office today also announced that they would mail a copy of DPI’s reply to every member of the General Assembly, all 115 school superintendents, all elected county commissioners and local School Board members statewide," the news release said.
He better hit those back-to-school sales for a good deal on copier paper.
