Woo Hoo South Carolina

Ars Technica had a nice article about the Thomas B. Fordham Foundation's review of the science education standards for the 49 states. South Carolina flew by with an A for it's science standards in K-12. In fact SC is on the front page of the review as one of the standards other states can look at as ways to improve. While the report is on standards not execution, I like to take a little pride in SC at least setting it’s bar pretty high.

Anyway, Woo Hoo. Way to go SC.

  • I like the grade Kansas was given for the treatment of evolution in the science curriculum. Some states are marginal, a couple have failed, but Kansas... "not even failed." That's what happens when the school board decides that there is no evidence for "macroevolution" and that the definition for science must include supernatural phenomena.
