Three P’s of Success
Can you align everyone on the same path? Can you get everyone going in the same direction?
• Raise expectations for students; prepare them to compete in a global economy;
• Provide students learning opportunities focused on knowledge, skills and tools; keep pace with their peers; align expectations; and
• Ensure a DoDEA high school diploma indicates a DODEA graduate prepared for post-secondary success in life.
Purpose

• Consistent, shared and rigorous education standards for all students entering, exiting and moving within our school system;
• Universal expectations for the vision of a college and career graduate at every grade level, kindergarten through grade 12; and
• Concise and relevant expectations that increase annually; every grade has standards that are equally important in content to prepare students for real life demands after graduation.
Promise
The promises of the College and Career Ready Standards are:
Alignment of People and Process will ensure that our Product is prepared for their Future.
We are here to support each other in this effort!
College & Career Ready Standards
What is a standard?
• Standards to Curriculum
• Standards to Instruction
• Standards to Assessment
(CBM)
CURRICULUM
• The standards are not curriculum – SILENT ON:• What to teach• How to teach• When to teach certain topics• The additional 15% - locally determined and vast • The History or Social Studies decisions (DoDEA S.S.) • The specificity of certain details
• Symbols of citizenship (flags, birds, flowers, trees, nation/state)• Handwriting – and if you don’t think the handwriting debate is an
interesting conversation, then try reading one of these hundreds of fonts on our computers without ever having had instruction on how to read, write and learn in this manner when your high school teacher writes this way, but
this is all you learned to read. LOL-OMG-
