Wow, how did I not even know about this??? It seems that my state has already adopted this, and I didn't even know it. I see this as a huge step for two reasons - first of all, as Grinity said, it will be helpful in determining just how advanced a child is. Takes some of the subjectivity out of it. But as part of a military family, I like it even more. I've always been afraid that all of the moving around will leave gaps in my childrens' educations. If everyone has the same standards, I think it will make moving from state to state a lot easier on kids.
