Why Common Core State Standards?
Preparation: The standards are college- and career-ready.
Competition: The standards are internationally benchmarked.
Equity: Expectations are consistent for all – and not dependent on a student’s zip code.
Clarity: The standards are focused, coherent, and clear.
Collaboration: The standards create a foundation to work collaboratively across states and districts, pooling resources and expertise, to create curricular tools, professional development, common assessments and other materials.
