Annual Report to Governor & General Assembly due Dec. 15.

Biennial Report to Governor & General Assembly on progress of implementing college & career readiness & college completion strategies due Dec. 1, 2014 & every 2 years thereafter (Chapter 533, Acts of 2013).

The P-20 Leadership Council of Maryland was initiated by the Governor in October 2007 (Executive Order 01.01.2007.20). In July 2010, the Council was established by statute (Chapter 191, Acts of 2010). "P-20" refers to a system of education that encompasses preschool through graduate studies, and ensures that students from an early age are learning the necessary skills for a competitive workplace.

To make the State more competitive in securing and maintaining business and economic development, the Council investigates ways to improve education, and advance workforce creation. The Council also ensures that college and career readiness, and college completion strategies for Maryland students are implemented (Code Education Article, sec. 24-801).

In 2016, the Council formed seven work groups to focus on: At-Risk Students, College and Career Readiness Implementation, Common Core/PARCC, High School Equivalency/GED, Maryland Longitudinal Data System, Teachers, and Workforce Development.
