Future Interventions
• Dropout Prevention / Early Warning
System:
– GaDOE partnering with GLISI, Gwinnett County
and SERVE to develop a system that provides a
student-level indication for the probability of high
school graduation starting in 6th grade.
• GaDOE CCRPI
– Next generation accountability system incentivizes
holistic student development towards college and
career readiness

The Common Core State
Standards Initiative
Beginning in the spring of 2009, Governors and state
commissioners of education from 48 states, 2 territories and the
District of Columbia committed to developing a common core of
state K-12 English-language arts (ELA) and
mathematics standards.
The Common Core State Standards Initiative (CCSSI) is a stateled effort coordinated by the
National Governors Association (NGA) and the
Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO).

Why Common Core Standards
• Preparation: The standards are college- and career-ready. They will help prepare
students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in education and training
after high school.
• Competition: The standards are internationally benchmarked. Common standards will
help ensure our students are globally competitive.
• Equity: Expectations are consistent for all – and not dependent on a student’s zip code.
• Clarity: The standards are focused, coherent, and clear. Clearer standards help students
(and parents and teachers) understand what is expected of them.
• Collaboration: The standards create a foundation to work collaboratively across states
and districts, pooling resources and expertise, to create curricular tools, professional
development, common assessments and other materials.

11
Why are the Common Core State Standards for
English language arts and mathematics
right for Georgia?
• Previous work with the GPS has prepared Georgia for
the implementation of the CCGPS.
• Prior teacher and administrator GPS training ensures a
smooth transition.
• Although some content may be in different grade
levels in CCSS, nearly all of the ELA and
mathematics standards are addressed.
• CCSS expectations are consistent with a single/highrigor diploma requirement for all students.

Common Core State Standards in
English Language Arts and Literacy in History/Social Studies,
Science, and Technical Subjects
College and Career Readiness (CCR) Standards
 Overarching standards for each strand that are further defined by grade-specific
standards
Grade-Level Standards in English Language Arts (CCGPS)
 K-8, grade-by-grade
 9-10 and 11-12 grade bands for high school
 Four strands: Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and Language
Standards for Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical
Subjects
 Standards are embedded at grades K-5
 Content-specific literacy standards are provided for grades 6-8, 9-10, and 11-12

College and Career Readiness Standards and
Common Core State Standards
• The College and Career Readiness Standards were
written first and define the expectations for all
students upon graduation from high school.
• The K-12 grade-specific standards define end-of-year
expectations and a cumulative progression designed to
enable students to meet college and career readiness
expectations no later than the end of high school.
• Each Common Core State Standard is aligned to a
college and career readiness standard.
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent

15
College and Career Readiness
Standards
(CCR)
These 32 standards “anchor” the document and define
general, cross-disciplinary literacy expectations that
must be met for students to be prepared to enter
college and workforce training programs ready to
succeed. (10 Reading, 10 Writing, 6 Speaking &
Listening, and 6 Language)
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent
“Making Education Work for All Georgians”
www.gadoe.org
16
Common Core for Mathematics
Standards for Mathematical Content
• K-8 grade-by-grade standards organized by domain
• 9-12 high school standards organized by conceptual categories
Standards for Mathematical Practice
• Describe mathematical “habits of mind”
• Offer standards for mathematical proficiency: reasoning, problem
solving, modeling, decision making, and engagement
• Connect with content standards in each grade
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent
“Making Education Work for All Georgians”
www.gadoe.org
17
K- 8 Mathematics Standards
• The K-5 standards provide students with a solid foundation in whole
numbers, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions and
decimals.
• The 6-8 standards describe robust learning in geometry, algebra, and
probability and statistics.
• Modeled after the focus of standards from high-performing nations,
the standards for grades 7 and 8 include significant algebra and
geometry content.
• Students who have completed 7th grade and mastered the content and
skills will be prepared for algebra in 8th grade or after.
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent
“Making Education Work for All Georgians”
www.gadoe.org
18
High School Mathematics Standards
• Call on students to practice applying mathematical ways of thinking to
real world issues and challenges
• Require students to develop a depth of understanding and ability to
apply mathematics to novel situations, as college students and
employees regularly are called to do
• Emphasize mathematical modeling, the use of mathematics and
statistics to analyze empirical situations, understand them better, and
improve decisions
• Identify the mathematics that all students should study in order to be
college and career ready.

•
The foundation of the GaCCRPI is the college and career ready indicators
The indicators are grouped by categories at each school level
A percentage rate will be calculated for each indicator
Scores will be provided in 3 areas to arrive at the Overall School Score:
 Achievement Score
 Progress Score
 Achievement Gap Closure Score
• Schools will also receive Star Ratings in two areas:
 Financial Efficiency
 School Climate

Student surveys such as the
Georgia Student Health Survey II
have linked school climate with
thoughts of dropping out of school.
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent
“Making Education Work for All Georgians”
www.gadoe.org
According to data from the Georgia Student
Health Survey II, students have
contemplated dropping out of school
because:
•
•
•
•
•
•
They don’t feel safe at school
They don’t feel successful at school
They are victims of bullying and harassment
They don’t feel respected at school
Schools don’t set clear rules for behavior
They don’t know anyone at school that they can trust

Why is a Positive School Climate
Important?
•
•
•
•

•
Promotes student learning
Improves test scores
Improves graduation rates
Improves school safety
Improves student attendance
Reduces drop-out rate
Improves working environment (student-teacher and
