PagineUS State Standards Hub: Texas, Florida, California & New York
Education in the United States is run by the states. Each state adopts its own learning standards and state tests, so a Grade 5 math test in Texas looks different from one in California. We built full curriculum hubs for the four largest states, where standards differ the most: Texas (TEKS), Florida (B.E.S.T.), California (Common Core State Standards) and New York (Next Generation Learning Standards). Every other state has practice on our state test pages.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a national curriculum in the US?
No. The US Constitution leaves education to the states. The federal Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) requires states to test reading and math every year in Grades 3–8 and once in high school, and science once in each of three grade spans, but each state chooses its own standards and tests. A national sample of students takes NAEP, "the Nation’s Report Card".
Why only four states?
Texas, Florida, California and New York educate about a third of US public school students and use standards that differ meaningfully from each other. Practice for all 50 states and DC is on our state test pages.
Are these official tests?
All questions and passages are original and written for Pagine to match the published curriculum. Pagine is not affiliated with any government, ministry, department of education, exam board or assessment body. Not official tests.
