California CSS Letter in support of Common Core Standards for the Social Studies

After much discussion and deliberation, the California Council for the Social Studies has adopted a policy and is sending letters to the Governor of California, CA State Supt. of Public Instruction, Gene Wilhoit of CCSSO, and Dane Linn from the NGA's Center for Best Practices in support of the Common Core Standards for Social Studies. The letter is attached and available for you to share with others as a sample.
