California State Standards

California State Standards are learning goals set by the state to ensure students gain the necessary knowledge and skills at each grade level. They outline what students should understand in subjects like math, English, science, and social studies, guiding teachers in planning lessons. These standards help create a consistent educational framework across California, aiming to prepare students for college, careers, and responsible citizenship. They are periodically reviewed and revised to reflect current research, technology, and societal needs, ensuring all students have access to a quality education that promotes critical thinking and lifelong learning.
