Draft 3 of the Proposed 2025 ELA SCOS Standard-by-Standard Survey Open
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.
