(FRANKFORT, KY) – The Social Studies Assessment Blueprint Review Committee (RC) will meet 9 a.m.-4 p.m. ET Oct. 24 at the Kentucky Department of Education, 300 Sower Blvd., Room 540-A, in Frankfort.

The Social Studies Assessment Blueprint RC is comprised of nine members, including elementary, middle and high school teachers, members from postsecondary education and a representative from the Kentucky business community.
