Common Core State Standards
What are the Common Core
State Standards (CCSS)
The Common Core State Standards Initiative
is a state-led effort coordinated by the
National Governors Association Center for
Best Practices (NGA Center) and the Council
of Chief State School Officers (CSSO) that
established a single set of clear educational
standards for kindergarten through 12th grade
in English language arts and mathematics that
states voluntarily adopt.
What are the CCSS?
CCSS are a clear set of shared goals and
expectations for the knowledge and skills
students need in “core” subject areas (English
language arts and mathematics) at each
grade level to ultimately be prepared for either
college or career. In South Carolina, Common
Standards are nothing new. Schools have
been teaching common standards –
developed by and unique to our state - in
English language arts (ELA), mathematics,
science and social studies since the passage
of the Education Accountability Act of 1998.
As part of the CCSS Initiative, SC no longer
has to maintain its common standards
for English language arts and mathematics,
but will continue to approve both and may
add to either. The state will continue to
maintain its common standards in science
and social studies.The standards establish
what students need to learn, but they do not
dictate how teachers should teach.Teachers
will continue to devise lesson plans and
tailor instruction to the individual needs of
the students in their classrooms.
On February 8, 2012, the SC State Board of
Education voted to adopt tests being
developed by the Smarter Balanced
Assessment Consortium. The State
Department of Education released the
following implementation schedule:
 2011-12 transition year
 2012-13 transition year
 2013-14 bridge year (CCSS will be used for
instructional purposes)
 2014-15 full implementation (testing will begin)
FACT
RHETORIC
and
Rhetoric: Adopting the CCSS is another step toward
the centralization and complete takeover of education
under the federal government.
Fact: State leaders, not the federal government, drove
the creation and development of the CCSS. The
decision for states to participate is voluntary and is not
a requirement of the federal government.
State leaders, including governors and state
commissioners of education from 48 states and two
territories, were concerned about differing levels of
education standards from state to state and unfair
comparisons being made concerning the quality of
schools from one state to another. Leaders realized
that if the country is to compete in the future in the
global marketplace for jobs and innovation, students
today must learn more.
than standards unique to their states.
Students need to learn standards that are
internationally benchmarked to prepare
them to compete with counterparts around
the world for college admission and careers.
Also, in an increasingly mobile country,
students who move from one state to
another would have the benefit of being
taught the same standards across grades
and states.
Rhetoric: The CCSS is a curriculum that will usurp
local control of our schools and classrooms.
Fact: Common core learning or academic standards
are not a curriculum. They are shared education goals
and expectations for what students should know at
each grade level. Curriculum, on the other hand, is
what and how teachers teach to help students meet
those standards including the textbooks and other
materials. Curriculum is generally chosen at the district
or even the school level, and in many cases, individual
teachers actually decide on the curriculum and
classroom content.
Rhetoric: SC’s ELA and mathematics standards were
already rigorous so it is a waste of time and money for our
state to participate in the CCSS initiative.
Fact: The CCSS standards focus on knowledge and
skills rather than memorization and are internationally
benchmarked. A 41-member group of SC educators
convened by the SC Education Oversight Committee
reviewed SC’s current ELA and mathematics standards
and compared them with the CCSS. The group found
the CCSS to meet or exceed the current rigor of SC’s
standards. Also, the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, a
conservative think tank in Washington D.C., compared
each states’ standards to the CCSS and determined that
overall, the CCSS were more rigorous than current state
academic standards.
Fact: Because there are fewer standards in each
subject, the CCSS will provide more freedom for
teachers to delve into appropriate content, spend time
on analysis and reading and on mathematical
application and fluency. What is demoralizing is being
overwhelmed by the demands of too many standards
and not enough time as presently exists. And since 45
states have adopted the CCSS, collaborative
possibilities have been opening up in classrooms not
only throughout each state, but across the country.

Fact: State leaders, not the federal government, drove the creation and development of the CCSS. The decision for states to participate is voluntary and is not a requirement of the federal government. State leaders, including governors and state commissioners of education from 48 states and two territories, were concerned about differing levels of education standards from state to state and unfair comparisons being made concerning the quality of schools from one state to another. Leaders realized that if the country is to compete in the future in the global marketplace for jobs and innovation, students today must learn more.
  • 8. than standards unique to their states. Students need to learn standards that are internationally benchmarked to prepare them to compete with counterparts around the world for college admission and careers. Also, in an increasingly mobile country, students who move from one state to another would have the benefit of being taught the same standards across grades and states.
  • 9. Rhetoric: The CCSS is a curriculum that will usurp local control of our schools and classrooms. Fact: Common core learning or academic standards are not a curriculum. They are shared education goals and expectations for what students should know at each grade level. Curriculum, on the other hand, is what and how teachers teach to help students meet those standards including the textbooks and other materials. Curriculum is generally chosen at the district or even the school level, and in many cases, individual teachers actually decide on the curriculum and classroom content.
  • 10. Rhetoric: SC’s ELA and mathematics standards were already rigorous so it is a waste of time and money for our state to participate in the CCSS initiative. Fact: The CCSS standards focus on knowledge and skills rather than memorization and are internationally benchmarked. A 41-member group of SC educators convened by the SC Education Oversight Committee reviewed SC’s current ELA and mathematics standards and compared them with the CCSS. The group found the CCSS to meet or exceed the current rigor of SC’s standards. Also, the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, a conservative think tank in Washington D.C., compared each states’ standards to the CCSS and determined that overall, the CCSS were more rigorous than current state academic standards.
  • 11. Fact: Because there are fewer standards in each subject, the CCSS will provide more freedom for teachers to delve into appropriate content, spend time on analysis and reading and on mathematical application and fluency. What is demoralizing is being overwhelmed by the demands of too many standards and not enough time as presently exists. And since 45 states have adopted the CCSS, collaborative possibilities have been opening up in classrooms not only throughout each state, but across the country.
