The overall goal of the Alabama College and Career Ready Initiative (Alabama’s educational standards) is to help teachers by providing clear content requirements for instruction in Math and English. Content that will ensure Alabama students have at least the same, if not a higher, level of learning as students in every other state in America. 

Alabama has developed a set of core academic standards that prepares students to not only graduate from high school prepared for college and/or a career. It also prepares Alabama students with the knowledge and skills to compete with any students from anywhere else in America and beyond.

The adoption of the Alabama educational standards enables students, parents, teachers, and stakeholders to be on the same page, working together for shared goals, making certain that all students graduate college and/or career ready.
