School Profile Report - Annual Reminder
KRS 158.6453 – Senate Bill 1 (2017) – requires all principals to complete the School Profile Report by Oct. 1 of each year for visual and performing arts, health education and physical education (practical living), career studies and world languages.
The School Report Card satisfies the requirement of KRS 158.6453(20)(b), which requires the department to include a link to each school’s profile report on its website. The link to each school’s profile can be found at the bottom of the organizational landing page of the School Report Card.
School Profile Report Requirements and Timeline
- Principals can begin completing the items for the School Profile Report in the School Report Card Collector Tool based on information from the 2021-2022 school year. All collection items are due no later than Sept.16. However, KDE recommends that this be completed, when possible, by the end of August to allow time to get SBDM member signatures before the Oct. 1 due date.
- School Profile Report items are numbers 24-53 in the “School Report Card – Collector Items” available on the KSIS School Report Card Resources website.
- New this year: Essential workplace ethics program details are included on the School Profile Report. Three questions were added to the SRC Collection Tool in the career studies area to capture program information for each school. These questions include: (1) A description of the school’s workplace ethics program, (2) The URL of the Workplace Ethics Program website, and (3) What percent of students at the school have attained local board-approved essential workplace ethics requirements. KRS 158.1413 details requirements of the essential workplace ethics instruction program and the Kentucky Academic Standards/Career Studies guide provides additional detail. If these questions are not applicable to your elementary schools, you can enter “Not Applicable.”
- After ensuring accuracy, print the School Profile Report for signatures. Printing of the School Profile Report can be done from the school’s downloads function of the School Report Card Approval Tool.
- Senate Bill 1 (2017) requires the School Profile Report be approved by the school-based decision making (SBDM) council and include signatures of all SBDM members, the principal, and the superintendent. If the school does not have an SBDM, it should be signed by the principal and superintendent.
- Once complete, schools should post the document to its school website.
- A hard copy must remain on file at central office and be available upon request.
