Common Core is illegal in Texas but it doesn’t seem to stop Texas Educators from spending Taxpayers money on Common Core Training.

Stacy Kimbriel is employed by Plano ISD and is a principal at McCall Elementary. Obviously Plano taxpayers paid her way and today she was able to enjoy her morning of leisure.

Mr. Mark Prensky in Stacy’s tweet below is a motivational speaker promoting the idea that educators have to jump on the “digital train” in order to be a successful educator today.

Prensky tweeted teaching students with tools of the past is punishment. Well as a home school mom of two college graduates my girls must of endured some real punishment but I have yet to see any signs of it as of today.
