May 3, 2021

The Georgia Department of Education has posted the K-12 Mathematics Standards for review for a 30-day public comment period. If approved, the standards will be implemented in the 2022-23 school year. 

Throughout the 2021-2022 school year, teachers will receive training and professional learning, new resources will be developed, assessments that are aligned to these standards will be developed, and communication will be provided to parents to ensure a smooth transition.

Due to Spring Break and other events, GaDOE has extended the public feedback survey deadline for the proposed K-12 mathematics standards to May 7, 2021.
