During year one of implementation, the state established new English Language Arts and Math standards, new assessments to inform instruction, and a new accountability system. Schools began the process of building awareness of the CCRS among educators, including the rationale for having common standards across states.
During year two, school districts were asked to go deeper into the standards to identify, understand, and implement significant instructional shifts in the ELA and mathematics standards and to develop lessons and units of study that reflect the CCRS.
This year, year three, Dr. Bice has asked that we "stay the course," equipping teachers with pedagogy and content knowledge. All educators will collaborate to develop and adopt curriculum and materials that are aligned to the College and Career Ready Standards and access the full range of assessment strategies to ensure success for all students.
The role of each district CCRS Implementation Team is to serve as leaders in the implementation process and to share new knowledge and learning with all teachers in the schools. The first task for our team is to develop a district CCRS plan for professional development. The plan will include developing a clear vision for CCRS implementation, a plan for articulating that vision to all stakeholders including parents and the community, developing consistent expectations for implementing CCRS, and outlining our goals with a coherent set of strategies for achieving our goals.
