[2] These standards were originally produced by the Common Core State Standards Initiative, a state-led effort coordinated by the National Governors Association Center for Best Practices and the Council of Chief State School Officers. This standards map includes those additions that were made by the State Board of Education when it adopted the Common Core on August 2, 2010. Additions are marked in bold and underlined.
