Common Core State Standards:

Next Steps

Comments from the first Common Core Conf.

Dr. Terry O. Pruitt...The fall conference was excellent and so timely and relevant. As many districts, we are in the planning stage with the CCSS and the information presented at the fall conference was very beneficial to me as the instructional leader in district 7. After reflecting on the conference and the information presented, I wanted all of our curriculum coordinators to hear what I had heard; therefore I plan to bring all of my school-level curriculum coordinators, my district level instructional staff, and vertical team leaders to the spring conference.

Dr. Pruitt is Deputy Superintendent for Instruction and Curriculum, Spartanburg 7
