"In a report on the Common Core State Standards that went to the governor and the State Board of Education earlier this month, Indiana Department of Education officials again emphasized the need for academic standards that prepare students for college and career. “Nearly one-third of all 2011 high school graduates attending postsecondary schools in Indiana required costly remediation,” according to the report. Although State Superintendent Glenda Ritz has stopped short of saying whether Indiana should stick with the new, nationally-crafted academic standards, she’s said repeatedly the state has a serious remediation problem and needs to take a closer look at its math standards.The report her office put out reviewing the new standards includes stats from the Indiana Commission for Higher Education."
