Common Core Standards

A draft of the K-12 Common Core Standards developed through the Council of Chief State School Officers and the National Governors Association, was released for public input. The national standards have been written to ensure that all American students graduate from our high schools, regardless of where they live, with the necessary skills and knowledge to succeed in college and the workforce. Right now all states operate under their own state standards, these standards are exploring a national frame work to provide consistent standards.

For the next twenty days, the public is invited to read and comment on the Common Core State Standards at http://www.corestandards.org/. To have your voice heard, please take the time to be part of this process.
