Achieving College and Career-Readiness: What Do We Know about Common Core Implementation, and How Can We Know More?

To truly realize the instructional rigor and educational promise of the Common Core, open and honest conversations about implementation’s successes and struggles are needed. To help facilitate these discussions, the Aspen Institute and Achieve are releasing two tools designed to help school-level staff and state leaders gauge implementation of the Common Core and to provide a framework for assessing progress. Please join us for an opportunity to hear directly from state and district leaders of Common Core implementation and learn about new tools and resources designed to support the important work of Common Core implementation.
