School & testing
Common Core State Standards
A shared set of grade-by-grade learning goals used by most U.S. states.
The Common Core State Standards spell out what students should know in math and English at each grade. Most states use them (some under their own name, a few opted out), which is why grade-level skills look similar across much of the country. See how your state compares on the states reference.
