Common Core State Standards!


This Mon., Feb. 11, brings another learning opportunity for parents: New Common Core Standards: How Are They Different?

I hope you will join me for this program at 7 p.m. in the Ivy Hall School Mat Room, 1072 Ivy Hall Lane, Buffalo Grove. Please enter through the double doors facing Clohesey Dr., on the east side of the school.

The program focus is the significant changes to curriculum–more rigor and greater expectations–that are the result of our implementation of Common Core Learning Standards. The Common Core is changing  English/Language Arts instruction at every grade level. In the 2013–14 school year, Common Core Learning Standards will be implemented for every grade level in math. Join District administrators and staff for the program on Mon., Feb. 11, to learn more.
