The attached documents include the latest information on the differences in performance by race and gender on KIRIS 1993 - 1998.

The first document is a memo from the Kentucky Department of Education senior leadership regarding the findings and our initiatives to assist schools in closing the gap and the second document is an abstract of the actual research project.
