KRS 158.6453 calls for the Kentucky Department of Education (KDE) to implement a process for reviewing all academic standards and aligned assessments with one or two content areas to be reviewed each year, and every six years after that on a rotating basis.
The process included revisions by Kentucky educators and community members, public input and review by the Kentucky Board of Education before undergoing final legislative review and adoption.
The newly adopted standards are implemented in Kentucky classrooms beginning in the school year following adoption. The current standards can be accessed on KYstandards.org. For more information on standards currently in the revision processvisit the Standards Review Meetings and News Webpage.
The following assessment blueprints are current and may be used as a resource for curricular and instructional decisions for schools.
