Reminder: Feedback Sought on Visual and Performing Arts Standards due Jan. 31
The Kentucky Department of Education (KDE) is seeking feedback on the current Kentucky Academic Standards (KAS) for Visual and Performing Arts.
KRS 158.6453 calls for KDE to implement a process for reviewing all academic standards and aligned assessments beginning in the 2017-18 school years. The schedule calls for one or two content areas to be reviewed each year and every six years after that on a rotating basis.
Standards outline what students are expected to learn in each grade to successfully transition to the next level of learning. The curriculum or methods and resources used to teach the standards is a separate issue and is decided at the local level.
To provide feedback on the KAS for Visual and Performing Arts, access the public comment form. Due to the amount of text within the survey, it is recommended that surveys be completed on a full-size computer or laptop screen. Participants are provided the opportunity to give feedback on all standards or self-selected areas of interest. Feedback on the current KAS for Visual and Performing Arts will be collected through Jan. 31.
Questions on this process can be directed to standards@education.ky.gov.
