+ So, What is the CCSS? “The Common Core State Standards provide a consistent, clear understanding of what students are expected to learn, so teachers and parents know what they need to do to help them. The standards are designed to be robust and relevant to the real world, reflecting the knowledge and skills that our young people need for success in college and careers. With American students fully prepared for the future, our communities will be best positioned to compete successfully in the global economy.”

+ So, What is the CCSS? The CCSS standards define the knowledge and skills students should have within their K-12 education careers so that they will graduate high school fully prepared for college and careers. The standards are: · Aligned with college and work expectations; · Clear, understandable and consistent; · Include rigorous content and application of knowledge through high- order skills; · Build upon strengths and lessons of current state standards; · Informed by other top performing countries, so that all students are prepared to succeed in our global economy and society; and · Evidence- and research-based. GA Department of Education
