Common Core State Standards
In June 2010, ISBE adopted the Common Core State Standards as the new Illinois Learning Standards in English/Language Arts and Mathematics. On July 13, 2011, Dr. Susie Morrison, ISBE Deputy Chief Superintendent, presented the Common Core Summer Institute session in Rock Falls to district staff in Area 2. Here are some key resources from that session. Lee/Ogle ROE would like to help you plan and implement for the new assessment in 2014-2015. Please contact us!
