How Can We Help?: The Common Core Career- and college- ready standards for every child. CCSSI Video

The Problem Our current standards are low in rigor and do not emphasize the reasoning skills necessary for college and career success.

CCSS will allow us to take advantage of economies of scale. The Problem Imagine you own a company with fifty different stores. If each had its own goals and objectives and approached them in different ways, would your company be able to implement your vision? CCSS will allow us to take advantage of economies of scale.

What is CCSSI? A historic, bipartisan state-led effort by the National Governor’s Association and the Council of Chief of State School Officers along with education groups, such as ACT, College Board (SAT), and Achieve.

What is CCSSI? Consistent English language arts and math standards for kindergarten through twelfth grades voluntarily adopted by states.

What does CCSSI mean for Michigan's students? Preparation: The CCSS will prepare students for both college and the workplace and emphasizes higher-order skills instead of knowledge and recall.

What does CCSSI mean for Michigan's students? Competition: CCSS are internationally benchmarked so our students will be competitive world-wide.

What does CCSSI mean for Michigan's students? Equity: CCSS will foster consistent expectations not dependent on state or district.

What does CCSSI mean for Michigan's students? Clarity: The Common Core are focused, coherent, and clear standards. Everyone knows what is expected of our students.

What does CCSSI mean for Michigan's students? Collaboration: CCSSI will be a foundation for teachers, states, and districts to work together from the same blueprints.

Frequently Asked Questions I thought there was local control over what was taught. Who gave the state the right to change our curriculum?

Frequently Asked Questions Is the Common Core State Standards Initiative the first step of a federal take-over of our education system?

Frequently Asked Questions Our kids already take enough standardized tests. Now they’re going to have more because of the new standards?

Frequently Asked Questions If our schools are performing poorly now with low-rigor standards, what’s going to happen when the standards get tougher?

Frequently Asked Questions Some large states seem to have a lot of influence on textbook publishers because of their size. If they don’t adopt, won’t our textbooks not match our standards?

Frequently Asked Questions What questions can parents ask now to ensure that the Common Core gets properly implemented in their district?

Frequently Asked Questions What can schools do to keep parents informed about changes to the standards?

What questions do you have?
