Bring Georgia’s standards straight into Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini

What it is, in plain language

A connector (the technical name is an MCP server) links your AI assistant to a focused library of Georgia’s published standards. You add it once, then ask questions the way you normally would. When a question is about Georgia’s standards, the assistant can look up the standards themselves and write its answer from them.

It’s powered by the same library of Georgia standards that runs the Georgia Homeroom chatbot and the Standards Explorer on this site. The difference is that the connector brings that library into Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini, so you can use it alongside your lesson planning, your other documents, and everything else those tools already do.

How it helps teachers and administrators

• Plan from the actual standards. Draft lessons, units, and learning objectives grounded in the exact standards for your grade or high-school course, cited by code, the same codes on your curriculum maps.
• Pace and align vertically. See how a skill builds year over year so you know what students should already have, and where this year’s work is heading.
• Prepare for the Georgia Milestones. Pull the GMAS blueprint for a test: what’s assessed, how the points are weighted, the depth-of-knowledge mix, and the question types, so test prep targets what actually counts.
• Differentiate and remediate. Read the mastery descriptors for a standard (what Beginning, Developing, Proficient, and Distinguished work looks like) to set targets and plan support.
• Translate old textbook codes. Paste legacy codes from older materials (like MGSE or ELAGSE) and get the current Georgia equivalent, or a suggestion when a strand was renamed.
• For administrators and coaches. Check curriculum alignment, audit coverage against the blueprints, and ground coaching conversations in the state’s published standards.

What the connector can do

Your assistant sees eleven tools, listed here by the names it shows. Every one of them only reads Georgia’s published standards and test materials; none changes or stores anything.

• Search Standards. Find standards by topic, with an optional grade, subject, strand, or course.
• Look Up Standards by Code. Look up codes such as 5.NR.1 or S8P1, including older MGSE and ELAGSE codes, which it translates to the current ones when it can.
• Search Achievement Level Descriptions. Find what Beginning, Developing, Proficient, and Distinguished work looks like for a topic.
• List Georgia Milestones Tests. List the Milestones tests that have a published blueprint.
• Get Georgia Milestones Test Blueprint. One test’s blueprint: points by category, the depth of knowledge mix, question types, and the standards each category covers.
• List Standards in a Blueprint Category. Every standard a test assesses under one category, with its point weight.
• Browse Standards. Walk the standards one level at a time: subject, course, strand, standard.
• Get All Standards for a Grade. Every standard for one subject and grade in one step. High school is organized by course, so there it works one course at a time.
• Trace a Strand Across Grades. Line up one standard or strand year over year.
• Get Standard Details. Everything about one standard: where it sits, its parts, its achievement levels, and its Milestones coverage.
• List Valid Filter Values. The exact subject, grade, course, and strand names the other tools accept.

What it covers

• Standards. The Georgia Standards of Excellence for English language arts, mathematics, science, and social studies, kindergarten through high school, as the state publishes them at case.georgiastandards.org.
• Georgia Milestones blueprints. 18 tests: End-of-Grade tests in English language arts and math for grades 3 through 8, science and social studies for grade 8, and the four End-of-Course tests (Algebra I, Biology, Literature II, and US History).
• Achievement level descriptors. The state’s descriptions of the four achievement levels, for the subjects and grades the Milestones tests cover.

Limitations

• It covers only the four core subjects. Other subjects, such as fine arts, world languages, and career courses, are not included.
• Many standards have no achievement level descriptors or blueprint coverage, because the Milestones tests do not cover every subject and grade.
• It has no student, school, or district data: no scores, grades, or test results.
• Searches match the wording of the standards, in English.
• It reflects the state’s standards as of our last update. For the latest official version, check case.georgiastandards.org.
• Your assistant writes the final answer and can still make mistakes. Check important details, such as a standard’s code or wording, against the state’s site.

Things you can ask once it’s connected

• “Find Georgia 5th-grade math standards about adding fractions with unlike denominators.”
• “What does 5.NR.3.3 say, and what does Proficient look like for it?”
• “Show me how this reading skill develops from grade 3 to grade 8.”
• “Break down the Grade 8 ELA Milestones blueprint: which claims carry the most points?”
• “What’s the current Georgia code for MGSE5.NF.1 from our old textbook?”
• “Walk me through the Biology standards one strand at a time.”

How to connect it

You’ll need an AI assistant on a plan that supports custom connectors (these are usually paid plans), plus the Georgia Homeroom connector address:

https://mcp.georgiahomeroom.org/mcp

There’s no sign-in or password to set up. In every app, the step is simply to paste in that address. (Exact menu names can shift as these apps update.)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "georgia-homeroom": {
      "httpUrl": "https://mcp.georgiahomeroom.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Good to know

• Free to use, but the AI plan may not be. The connector is free. Custom connectors themselves generally require a paid plan from Claude, ChatGPT, or Google.
• It only looks things up. The connector reads Georgia’s public, official standards to answer your questions. It doesn’t change anything or store your students’ information.
• Anyone can use it. It’s built for teachers and administrators, but parents are welcome to add it too.
• Help, privacy, and terms. If something goes wrong, the support page has fixes for common problems. The privacy policy explains what the connector records, and the terms of service cover its use.
