Educational standards describe what students should know and be able to do in each subject in each grade. Since 2010, 45 states have adopted the same standards for English and math. These standards are called the Common Core State Standards (CCSS). Having the same standards helps all students get a good education, even if they change schools or move to a different state. Teachers, parents, and education experts designed the standards to prepare students for success in college and the workplace.

Anonymous Tip Reporting

The Rescue Union School District students in grades 3-8 have completed the 2014 SBAC Field Test. This was a computerized test in English Language Arts and Mathematics. While the Pilot Test will not produce any results for students, schools or districts, it gave us a wonderful opportunity to experience this new type of assessment and prepare ourselves for next year, when the test will produce results and be used in accountability measures for California schools and districts.
