About
Open the door to success with the CCSS
This book shows how to leverage the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) to equip all students-not just high achievers-for college and career. The authors helped lead their district in closing achievement gaps and increasing the number of students who completed four-year college programs. The results of their efforts show a remarkable increase in both excellence and equity in the content areas due to applying the authors' research-based ACES framework:
• Acceleration rather than remediation
• Critical thinking
• Equity in education for all students
• Support
Educators will find practical strategies that are applied and developed in model lessons linked to the CCSS and KSUS standards.
