The State of State Standards Post-Common Core

This report compares the Common Core English language arts (ELA) and math standards to those standards of states that do not use Common Core or have greatly altered Common Core for their state's schools. The report hopes to provide more data to address questions like: "Are states’ ELA and math standards of sufficient quality and rigor to drive effective instruction? And if not, how might they be improved?"

"By taking a close look at these states, plus a fresh look at the Core, [this report] identify ideas that are worthy of broader adoption, as well as major mistakes that states should avoid."
