What Are Common Core State Standards?
Beginning this year, parents, students, and teachers will be discussing Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and how they affect our students' daily learning. Common Core State Standards define the skills and knowledge students should gain from their K-12 education in order to be successful in college or post-education employment. They are consistent regardless of where the student lives. The following links are provided to help Colonial Middle School families find out more about Common Core State Standards and how they are being implemented by Shelby County Schools.
