The third phase involves districts fully implementing the Common Core State Standards in classrooms. Instruction focuses on:

• The Essential Skills that are embedded within the standards at each grade level and across content areas;
• Helping all students to be successful in obtaining an Oregon Diploma; and


• Preparing all students to be college and career ready.

Strong, visible leadership at both the school and district level is essential to successful implementation. With clear communication about the district's focused vision and plan for implementation, and careful consideration regarding the allocation of resources to support schools as they move forward, principals and teachers can go about the work of bringing the Common Core to life in the classroom.
