K-12 Math Standards Review
The North Carolina Department of Public Instruction's K-12 Math Standards team is excited to announce the start of the review process for the current K-12 Math standards. Per the NC State Board of Education's Manual for the Review and Revision of Standards, the team is seeking feedback and input on the current standards from all stakeholders including educators, administrators, parents, students, institutions of higher education, business/industry representatives from across the state, national organizations, and other education agencies. Updates to the current K-12 Math Standards may include clarifications, additions, deletions, or replacements to the current standards.
To support our stakeholders in this process two surveys are being shared. Everyone is encouraged to fill out one or both of the surveys.
The first option is an overview of the K-12 Math standards asking general questions about the standards as a whole. In addition, this survey includes a question seeking input on what math skills and concepts every North Carolina graduate should know.
The second option is more detailed, allowing participants to provide specific feedback on each standard for every grade or course.
Links to both surveys are below. Again, all stakeholders are encouraged to fill out one or both surveys. Thank you for your time and input. The feedback is extremely valuable to the K-12 Math standards review process.
K-12 Math Standards All-Stakeholder General Survey
K-12 Math Standards All-Stakeholder Standard-by-Standard Survey
Both surveys will remain open until 8:00 AM on October 21, 2024. Additional information about the math standard course of study and the math team can be found on the NCDPI Math page.
