Education standards are nothing new. If you check out the full history and timeline of when we adopted the new standards, you will see that it all started back in 2009. Kentucky and many other states have had standards to guide classroom work for decades – guidelines that reflect what students should know and be able to do at each grade level. The difference today is that Kentucky’s standards are more demanding. Kentucky standards focus is on making sure all students can succeed in an economy and society that is rapidly changing and will continue to do so in the future.
