Common Core Teaching Kids That The Bill of Rights is "Outdated"

According to Story Leak:

Sixth grade students from the Bryant School District in Arkansas were asked to throw out two amendments in the Bill of Rights as part of a Common Core history class assignment.
The worksheet reads:

“The government of the United States is currently revisiting The Bill of Rights. They have determined that it is outdated and may not remain in its current form any longer.”

***

The assignment also asks students to revise the Bill of Rights under a special “task force,” failing to mention the amendment process which includes support from a two-thirds majority in the House and Senate.

Just another reason I'm happy to be in Texas, one of the five states not to accept the Common Core Curriculum.
