Monthly Standards Update
In May 2024, the NCDPI ELA Team began revision of the current 2017 ELA Standard Course of Study (SCOS). In an effort to keep stakeholders informed during the Revision Phase, the NCDPI ELA Team will provide standards updates that contain the latest announcements and current news regarding the ELA SCOS.
These updates will be sent the first Friday of every month. View the updated revision timeline for an overview of the revision process and this previous listserv for information regarding the delay in the revision timeline.
Updates on the revision process can also be viewed on the Office of Teaching and Learning webpage, as well as the ELA Virtual Implementation Kit (VIK) on the Standards Review, Revision, & Implementation page.
Draft 3 of the Proposed 2025 ELA SCOS Standard-by-Standard Survey Closes October 1, 2025
State Board of Education policy specifies that the NC Department of Public Instruction will formally collect feedback on the draft revised standards from educators, administrators, parents, students, institutions of higher education, business/industry representatives, and other education agencies.
The purpose of the Draft 3 Standard-by-Standard Survey (K-2, 3-5, 6-8, and 9-12) is to obtain input from educators and stakeholders familiar with the English Language Arts (ELA) Standard Course of Study in order to inform further revision decisions. As such, the ELA team requests your thoughtful input and comments on the draft revised academic standards for ELA to inform the revision process.
To support completion of the standard-by-standard survey, view this previous listserv regarding the ELA Standards Timeline. This listserv explains key reasons for the delay in the revision timeline for the Proposed 2025 ELA Standard Course of Study. Also, this Survey Companion Document provides context for revisions made to Drafts 1-3 of the Proposed 2025 ELA SCOS.
PDF versions of the Draft 3 surveys are available to view, if needed. NCDPI thanks you for your time and input. Your feedback is extremely valuable to the ELA standards revision process.
