Doug Herrmann has a message for Melridge Elementary schools: You figure it out.

Herrman recently posted a photo on Facebook of a check he wrote to the school in Painesville, Ohio, in which the dollar amount of the check was expressed as a nonsensical string of Xs and Os.
The school uses the Common Core, Herrmann says, the standardized (and often criticized) curriculum designed to level the playing field in American education.
Though Herrmann admits he never sent the check in, he does joke that the school should be perfectly capable of deciphering the correct amount, given its use of the Common Core.
