  1. Continuous improvement in every classroom, for every child, every day. Core Conversations Navigating Change

  2. About the Standards The Common Core State Standards Initiative is a state-led effort coordinated by the National Governors Association Center for Best Practices (NGA Center) and the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO). The standards were developed in collaboration with teachers, school administrators, and experts, to provide a clear and consistent framework to prepare our children for college and the workforce.

  3. Why Now? Disparate standards across states Student mobility Global competition Today’s jobs require different skills

  4. Why is This Important? Prepares students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in college and work Ensures consistent expectations regardless of a student’s zip code Provides educators, parents, and students with clear, focused guideposts

  5. Why Common Core? Educational Standards - • Aligned with expectations for college and career success • Clear, so that educators and parents know what they need to do to help students learn • Consistent across all states, so that students are not taught to a lower standard just because of where they live • Include both content and the application of knowledge through high-order skills (RBT)

  6. Why Common Core? Educational Standards: • Build upon strengths and lessonsof current state standards and standards of top-performing nations • Realistic, for effective use in the classroom • Informedby other top performing countries, so that all students are prepared to succeed in our global economy and society • Evidence and research-based criteriahave been set by states, through their national organizations CCSSO and the NGA Center.
