American Birthright vs. Colorado Social Studies Standards
When Woodland Park became the first district in the country to adopt the American Birthright standards, Witt and other administrators knew from the beginning that they didn’t meet the state’s newly adopted standards.
In an email to Kim Moore, Woodland Park’s chief academic officer, about the NCAA approval status, high school principal Karen Hamlow admitted, “As you know, the Birthright Standards do not meet state of Colorado standards nor national standards, so we will need to do significant work to make sure our courses are robust.” |
