Over the last four years, states and school districts across America have embraced an enormous set of urgent challenges with real courage: raising standards to prepare young people to compete in the global economy, developing new assessments, rebuilding accountability systems to meet the needs of each state and better serve at-risk students, and adopting new systems of support and evaluation for teachers and principals.
Meeting this historic set of challenges all at once asks more of everybody, and it’s a tribute to the quality of educators, leaders, and elected officials across this country that so many have stepped up. One crucial change has been the state-led effort to voluntarily raise standards. That effort dates back to 2006, when a bipartisan core of leaders — governors, state superintendents, business people — came together because they recognized that America’s students needed to be prepared to compete in a global economy that demanded more than basic skills.

It has the support of the Barack Obama administration and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, former Florida Governor Jeb Bush and Randi Weingarten of the American Federation of Teachers. Top research groups such as the Fordham Institute and Achieve Inc. are involved, and consortia financed by the U.S. Department of Education have formed to assess the standards from state to state.
