Welcome to the PARCC Website!

We are very excited to share PARCC's new website! Whether you are an educator, policymaker, parent, student or simply an engaged member of the public, this website offers useful information on the Common Core State Standards and PARCC assessments.

The Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) represents an important step forward. For the first time ever, 25 states have come together to develop a next-generation, common assessment system that will help ensure all students graduate from high school ready for college and careers.
