Wyoming policy makers who think this flight from public education isn't happening right here in their own back yard, should think again. One of the lasting legacies of the Common Core may well be its power to open up parental choice to superior opportunities via home schooling, coops, and private schools. And for anyone who thinks parents are the only ones concerned about the Common Core, take a look at \[this video\](http://youtu.be/JLc\_hqVoUuc) of a brave Kindergarten teacher in Missouri who, despite being intimidated and bullied at work, chose to come forward and testify before the Missouri legislature against the Common Core. She is not alone in her concerns. Rather she is a part of a courageous group of teachers who have been willing to stand up against outright threats in order to voice their professional opinions. Teachers in Wyoming and elsewhere who see the negative effects of Common Core in their classrooms fear the potential loss of employment should they come forward and inform others about what is happening. \[ \](https://wyliberty.org/javascript:void(0);) \[ \](https://wyliberty.org/javascript:void(0);) \[ \](https://wyliberty.org/javascript:void(0);) Tags: \[Wyoming Legislature\](https://wyliberty.org/blog-tags/wyoming-legislature) \[Public Education System\](https://wyliberty.org/blog-tags/public-education-system) \[Education\](https://wyliberty.org/blog-tags/education) \[Common Core\](https://wyliberty.org/blog-tags/common-core) \[ WyLiberty Attorneys Call for Immediate Change to W... \](https://wyliberty.org/blog/government-programs/wyliberty-attorneys-call-for-immediate-change-to-wyoming-election-law) \[ Fourth Amendment Follies Coming Soon to Wyoming \](https://wyliberty.org/blog/legal-perspectives/fourth-amendment-follies-coming-soon-to-wyoming) #### Related Posts ### \[WyLiberty’s 10 Interim Topics to Watch\](https://wyliberty.org/blog/government-transparency/wylibertys-10-interim-topics-to-watch) \[Transparency\](https://wyliberty.org/blog/government-transparency) ### \[WY 2026 SF 47 - Increase of Hathaway Scholarship Awards\](https://wyliberty.org/blog/political-perspectives/wy-2026-sf-47-increase-of-hathaway-scholarship-awards) \[Political\](https://wyliberty.org/blog/political-perspectives) ### \[Rethinking Degree Requirements in Wyoming Government Jobs - Episode 106\](https://wyliberty.org/blog/eye-on-the-issues/rethinking-degree-requirements-in-wyoming-government-jobs-episode-106) \[Eye on the Issues\](https://wyliberty.org/blog/eye-on-the-issues) ### \[Facing the Storm: Superintendent Degenfelder on Education Challenges and Opportunities - Episode 99\](https://wyliberty.org/blog/education/facing-the-storm-superintendent-degenfelder-on-education-challenges-and-opportunities-episode-99) \[Education\](https://wyliberty.org/blog/education) ### \[The ESA Freeze and Its Cost to Wyoming Families - Episode 98\](https://wyliberty.org/blog/eye-on-the-issues/the-esa-freeze-and-its-cost-to-wyoming-families-episode-98) \[Eye on the Issues\](https://wyliberty.org/blog/eye-on-the-issues) ### \[All Wyoming Families Should Have School Choice\](https://wyliberty.org/blog/education/all-wyoming-families-should-have-school-choice) \[Education\](https://wyliberty.org/blog/education) !\[logo white 002\](https://wyliberty.org/images/general\_art/logo\_white\_002.png) \*\*Wyoming Liberty Group\*\* P.O.
