assist Network Teams, District Superintendents and superintendents in their
ongoing Common Core, Data Driven Instruction, and APPR implementation
efforts.
The purpose of these tools is
to capture evidence of the shifts in practice in each of our classrooms. The
results of this collection can play a key role in providing evidence-based
feedback in general and as it relates to APPR specifically.

bringing the Common Core to life in their classrooms.

resources that will help parents and families understand the Common Core and
