This third webinar of the School Leadership for Common Core State Standards (CCSS) series will focus on the CCSS math standards, which will require students to have greater math fluency, and teachers—especially at the K–8 level—to have a firm foundation in algebraic concepts, since algebraic thinking will be expected much earlier in a student’s education. Join us for this webinar, during which we will briefly unpack the math standards and discuss the kinds of adjustments school leaders must make to ensure a smooth implementation.

About the Common Core Series

School leaders are becoming familiar with the content of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and are considering the kind of instruction that will be required of their teachers.

But what about YOUR practice?

The school leaders’ practices have to change to create the conditions that promote a successful implementation, and leaders will have to consider what it means to, for instance:

• Lead and accelerate a schoolwide literacy program
• Build the capacity of teachers to teach to Common Core State Standards
• Lead K–12 vertical and horizontal articulation

Combining College Board's deep understanding of CCSS with NASSP's extensive history in principal development and school improvement, the two organizations are launching an online community and webinar series to highlight the issues that K-12 school leaders will need to consider during the CCSS transition.
