"A Little Lie" wrote a student in response to this question. Club member Jon Morse thought the same thing and look what happened to him! This headline question and cute response, among others, was the lead in to a wonderful program presented by our very own, Marilyn Lippiatt (pictured here with Jon). Marilyn, who has served public education for the past 35 years as a teacher, principal and superintendent, talked about the Common Core Standard approach to teaching kids in school by connecting standards for content and practice in the classroom. She is now the Executive Director of Professional Development of Quality Education Solutions (QES)-Common Core Standard Plus. Marilyn oversees the work of consultants and education specialists in districts and schools throughout California and Hawaii. Thank you so much Marilyn for a great program...we LEARNED a lot!
