What is the common core?
Students today are enveloped in a world where colleges and businesses have increasing expectations.
To help ensure the whole of the student body is prepared for success after high school, be it in college or career,
the Common Core State Standards were generated in an effort to establish clear and consistent guidelines
as to what our students - from kindergarten to grade 12 - should know and be able to do in ELA and math.
With the help of educational experts and teachers from across the country, the CCSS were designed, with an emphasis on preparation for the workforce or collegiate courses. The standards, which focus heavily on critical thinking, problem solving, and analytical skills, are not found just in New York, but across the country,
and are helping our students to be successful in whatever life-path they may choose.
The Common Core State Standards promote great DEPTH: a deeper understanding of content through digital integration, everyday exposure to critical skills, purposeful assessment to drive instruction, clear and visible targets, and high-level literacy strategies that work towards the acquisition of key content

“Common education standards are essential for producing the educated work force America needs to remain globally competitive.
This voluntary state-lead effort will help ensure that all students can receive the college-and career-ready,
world‐class education they deserve, no matter where they live."
