CCSSO

The Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) is a nonpartisan, nationwide, nonprofit organization of public officials who head departments of elementary and secondary education in the states, the District of Columbia, the Department of Defense Education Activity, the Bureau of Indian Education and the five U.S. extra-state jurisdictions. CCSSO is committed to ensuring that all students participating in our public education system -- regardless of background -- graduate prepared for college, careers, and life.

Interoperability is a priority of the CCSSO CIO Network and the Education Management Information Advisory Collaborative including projects using a Future Readiness and Modernization Maturity Model to identify and prioritize areas of growth for interoperability, Digital Excellence, and a Community of Innovation.
