Science Fair Info Night
REPEAT: NEW Math Standards
Below is important information shared regarding the 2017 Math Standards officially adopted by the state. You can access the comparison document which outlines the shifts and changes from the Common Core Standards HERE. Changes are meaningful and intentional, but the standards you have been working with are not overhauled, rather tweaked and revised.
Important to note this year is an awareness and review year of the changes; new standards are to be implemented in curriculum and testing for next year 18-19. However, we want to make sure and provide time for our staff to get comfortable with the revisions in preparation for next year.
2017 Mathematics Standards Implementation Timeline
- 2017-2018 School Year
- Zero year for reviewing the 2017 Mathematics Standards and local curriculum alignment.
- No assessment changes for 2017-18
- 2018-2019 School Year
- Districts' initial implementation for the 2017 Mathematics Standards
- Assessment will field test items aligned to the 2017 Mathematics Standards
- 2019-2020 School year
- Full implementation for the 2017 Mathematics Standards
- Fully aligned summative assessment
REPEAT: NEW ELA Standards
KSDE has revised the ELA Common Core standards as part of their 7 year evaluation cycle. The changes in the KS ELA standards are modest revisions, rather than an overhaul.
Timeline:
November 2017 - KSDE votes on changes
Implementation If adopted:
2017-18- become familiar with changes, no changes to state assess.
2018-19 - implement standards into the curriculum, state assessments changed to align with new standards.
