On
June 2, 2010, North Carolina adopted the Common Core State Standards in
K-12 Mathematics and K-12 English Language Arts released by the
National Governors Association Center for Best Practices and the Council
of Chief State School Officers. With the adoption of these state-led
education standards, North Carolina is in the first group of states to
embrace clear and consistent goals for learning to prepare children for
success in college and work. The full Common Core standards can be
