This report represents findings from a survey the Council did in which 36 Council member public school districts responded to questions regarding the implementation of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS). The survey covered a wide range of implementation areas including questions regarding districts' long-term CCSS implementation plans, professional development activities in both English Language Arts & Literacy and Mathematics, strategies on measuring and collecting data on the implementation of the CCSS and communication strategies to inform key community and education stakeholders of their district's Common Core initiative. As school districts are only beginning to implement the Common Core State Standards, this report's findings represent the initial year in an expected trend toward full district-wide implementation. Appended are: (1) Crosstabs between professional development activities in English Language Arts and percentage of school-level staff knowledgeable of instructional implications of the CCSS--2012 (n=31); (2) Crosstabs between professional development activities for the Math CCSS and the percentage of school-level staff able to discuss instructional implications of the CCSS; and (3) Crosstabs between percentage of schools with organizational structures needed to implement the CCSS and the percentage of school level staff knowledgeable about instructional implications of the CCSS--2012 (n=31).
