TCRWP - Teachers College Reading & Writing Project Common Core State Standards College and Career Readiness Illinois joined more than 40 states in a collaborative effort to raise learning standards and improve college and career readiness for all students, regardless of where they live. The new Common Core State Standards establish clear expectations for what students should learn in English language arts and mathematics at each grade level. By emphasizing depth over breadth, the Common Core ensures that students have comprehensive understanding of key concepts. Illinois has developed The Professional Learning Series (PLS) which is a repository for professional development resources and tools to assist with the various aspects of common core implementation. Twenty-six states are working together in the Partnership for the Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers. These 26 states have adopted the new K-12 Common Core State Standards in English and math and are pooling their resources for an internationally benchmarked assessment system. PARCC Resources
