Core Knowledge Foundation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Core Knowledge Foundation is a non-profit, non-partisan educational foundation founded in 1986 by E. D. Hirsch, Jr., professor emeritus at the University of Virginia and author of The Knowledge Deficit, Cultural Literacy, and The Schools We Need and Why We Don't Have Them. The Foundation is dedicated to excellence and fairness in early education and believes that these goals can be attained through the implementation of a curriculum that is solid, shared, specific, and sequenced. The foundation conducts research on curricula, develops books and other materials for parents and teachers, offers workshops for teachers, and serves as the hub of a network of Core Knowledge schools.
