Common Core State Standards (CCSS) • Currently ELA and Math • Sponsored by the National Governor’s Association (NGA), and Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) • Purpose: to ensure students meet the requirements of college and career readiness (CCR) • Research and evidence based • Aligned with college and work expectations • Rigorous in content AND application of knowledge • Internationally benchmarked

Common Core State Standards (CCSS) continued • State standards NOT national standards • Written to create commonality across U.S. • Adoption was voluntary (although mandatory for states applying for the RttT grant) • Currently 44 states adopted w/ several provisional • States were permitted to add up to 15% to the CCSS to “personalize” them • Ohio chose not to add to the CCSS for monetary reasons
