NEWBURGH, N.Y. – Another “porny” Common Core-recommended book has been discovered, this time by teachers in New York’s Newburgh Enlarged City School District.

The Times Herald-Record reports dozens of concerned teachers attended last night’s school board meeting to sound the alarm about “Black Swan Green,” a 2006 award-winning novel by British author David Mitchell.

English teacher Jen Costabile presented excerpts of the book to board members “in which the narrator, a 13-year-old boy, graphically describes his father’s private parts, as well as a sex act,” the Times Herald-Record reports.

A 2006 article by TheGuardian.com described the sex scene as “an al fresco tryst witnessed by a 12-year-old boy, in which every stage of the sexual act is compared to something from an early 80s childhood.”

It’s not clear that any of Newburgh’s ninth-graders would have ever seen the explicit passages, as “the curriculum calls for students to read only 20 pages of the book,” the Times Herald-Record reports.

(A digression: We fail to understand how reading 20 pages of a book constitutes a “rigorous” education, as Common Core has been labeled by supporters.)

Costabile warned that “Black Swan Green” wasn’t the only inappropriate book that’s been recommended by state officials as being compatible with Common Core, the new English and math standards that are being enacted in New York and some 40 other states.

“At least three of the books listed on the modules contain passages using inappropriate language and visual imagery that most people would consider pornographic,” Costabile told board members.

Board President Dawn Fucheck said the books are still “in sealed packages” and that the district would attempt to return them and seek a full refund, approximately $6,000.

The teachers and board members should be commended for discovering the problem before the novels were handed out to 14-year-old students, and for taking swift action to correct the problem.

Still, this incident serves as another red flag that something is horribly wrong with Common Core and how it is being implemented.

In recent weeks, parents and educators have come forward with complaints that two other Common Core approved novels – “Dreaming in Cuban” by Cristina García and “The Bluest Eye” by Toni Morrison – are too smutty for the classroom.

It should lead Americans to question whether the (well-paid) adults in charge of their local school system are actually evaluating the materials they’re assigning to students, or if they’re just mindlessly choosing them from a pre-approved list that’s been handed down by Common Core purveyors.

If our school leaders aren’t capable of screening out the sexually charged garbage, how in the world will they ever catch all the politically charged, left-wing propaganda that’s being peddled to schools under the guise of Common Core?

Americans should also be asking why high-profile, pro-Common Core conservative leaders – namely Jeb Bush and Mike Huckabee – aren’t publicly challenging their friends at the National Governors Association and the Council of Chief State School Officers to clean up their act.

Common Core was sold to Americans as a “rigorous,” life-changing approach to education that’s going to restore this nation as a world leader.

What we’ve seen so far suggests that the so-called experts who’ve foisted this K-12 experiment onto our schools don’t have any idea what they’re doing. From impossible-to-follow math assignments to gut-rot reading material, the Common Core looks like a big, bungled mess that’s destined for the ash heap of history – but only after it harms an entire generation of learners.
