2. Common Core State Standards Indiana’s College and Career Ready Standards Every Child Every School Every Community College and Career Ready

3. Why? We care about our kids New beginning for our kids They move on with their lives They can obtain successful livelihoods in jobs, apprenticeships, military So they can go on to college They begin their lives as adults

5. But in reality..... What does that pretty little piece of paper mean? Not Much….  Varies from state to state

6. What should it mean? College and Career Readiness

7. The statistics are staggering.

10. 30% of high school graduates who take the Armed Forces Qualification Test do not pass it. http://d15h7vkr8e4okv.cloudfront.net/NATEE1109.pdf

11. For students going to Indiana community colleges: $35 Million is spent on remediation. Of those students receiving remediation, fewer than 25% will earn any degree. Approximately $27 million http://www.in.gov/che/files/CCA_Smarter_Choices_Faster_Completion_Summary.pdfhttp://www.in.gov/che/files/CCA_Smarter_Choices_Faster_Completion_Summary.pdf and http://www.in.gov/che/files/Dashboard_13009.pdf http://www.in.gov/che/files/Dashboard_13009.pdf

12. In Indiana, the lack of College and Career Readiness has led to a skills gap. 2.4 unfilled STEM jobs for every unemployed Hoosier. http://www.courierpress.com/news/2013/aug/28/no-headline--workforce/?print=1

13. In 2012, 54% of jobs in Indiana were classified as “middle-skill.” LPN Electrician Welders Truck Drivers Only 47% of Hoosiers have the skills and credentials for these positions. 13% of these jobs will remain unfilled. http://www.nationalskillscoalition.org/assets/reports-/2013-09_indianas-forgotten.pdf

14. 5% of all jobs in Indiana are unfilled because of a lack of qualified workers to fill them. Nationally, it is 9%. Bureau of labor statistics

16. Another inherent problem with current standards Mobility 15-20% of American school children move in any given year. Students living below the poverty line are twice as likely to move as those living above it. In 2012 16% of high school students in Indiana, roughly 1 in 6, switched high schools during the course of the school year. http://www.doe.in.gov/sites/default/files/accountability/2012-mobility-report-school.xlsx http://www.edweek.org/ew/issues/student-mobility/

17. These children receive very little protection under No Child Left Behind. Military students typically attend 6-9 schools between Kindergarten and 12 th grade. Mobility (continued) 1 in 6 third graders has attended 3 or more schools. http://www.stcloudstate.edu/tpi/initiative/documents/preparation/School%20Mobility%2 0and%20Student%20Achievement%20in%20an%20Urban%20Setting.pdf http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d1140.pdf
