Description

This document contains the mathematics content standards for California public schools for grades K-12. With the adoption of these content standards in mathematics, California is going beyond reform and redefining the state's role in public education. For the first time, the content that students need to acquire at each grade level is specifically stated. These standards are rigorous. The content is attainable by all students, given sufficient time, except for those few who have severe disabilities. These standards are regarded as firm but not unyielding and will be modified in future years to reflect new research and scholarship. Fifteen years from now, the adoption of these standards will be viewed as the signal event that began a rising tide of excellence in Californian schools. (Author/MVL).
