ps1 Standards - Math

Part of the education process is to develop standards that specify what topics students should learn at each grade level. For example, a standard set for third graders is that they learn their multiplication tables.

We are interested in knowing who you think should make important decisions regarding educational standards.

At what level should mathematics standards be set?

At the national level, at the state level, at the school district level or at the school level?
