Academic Standards

The Office of Academic Standards provides statewide leadership and services to schools and districts to ensure implementation of grade-level standards-based instruction for all students. We accomplish this by:

  • developing and revising academic standards and expanding support materials;
  • promoting the use of effective evidence-based instructional practices by schools and districts; and
  • facilitating the implementation of programs, projects, grants, and activities that support standards-based instruction.
