“Common education standards are essential for producing the educated work force America needs to remain globally competitive. This voluntary state lead effort will help ensure that all students can receive the college and career ready, world class education they deserve, no matter where they live.

May Three Cups of Tea be a catalyst to bring the gift of literacy to each of those children who deserves a chance to go to school.”
