(FRANKFORT, KY) – The Kentucky Department of Education's Testing Board of Review will meet virtually at 2:30 p.m. ET on Dec. 16.

The Testing Board of Review (TBR) and the commissioner of education work together to ensure the integrity of all state-required assessments is maintained. 703 KAR 5:080 charges the Testing Board of Review with providing a recommendation to the commissioner of education regarding testing allegations reported to the Kentucky Department of Education (KDE).
