I'm more mad that Jindal turned his back on common core.

In my opinion, the reason it wasn't working is that it needs to be implemented at a young age. It's not fair for kids in the 9th grade to have their curriculum and methods learning turned upside down. start at an early age, and the kids will do just fine. doesn't it put a lot of emphasis on critical thinking?

We need charter schools in the worst way too

I'm amazed at how brazenly transparent he is at upping his conservative bonafides.

Common Core would be great if the teachers learned how to teach it. It's big scary federal government, so frick it. No need to change what we're doing...we can do it better here in Louisiana anyway as our education statistics show.

To be fair to Jindal, he did push education reform. Unfortunately, it was more about union busting and establishing religious schools instead of actually improving the system.
