Americans like Common Core, but support is falling

Americans generally support the Common Core education standards, but support is waning, according to poll analysis from the conservative American Enterprise Institute.

“We can say confidently that the Common Core still generally enjoys majority support, that it has seen a dramatic erosion in its level of support and that the degrees of support one finds depend enormously on how polling questions are phrased,” AEI education scholar Frederick Hess and research assistant Kelsey Hamilton wrote.
