Mission Statement
“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.”
