2012-13 Common Core State Standards WebEx Series

As we work together to implement the Common Core State Standards, we will all have a role to play in ensuring that students, parents, teachers, and communities understand what the standards are, why they are important, and what we can all do to support student success.

The resources and documents on this page are designed to assist districts and schools as they communicate with their communities and families on the new Common Core State Standards.
