Join us for a collaborative session exploring the updated Kentucky Academic Standards for Reading and Writing. Together, participants will build a shared understanding of the architecture and key revisions of the standards, examine the critical role of Standard 10 in shaping reading comprehension instruction, and explore how to bundle standards through grade-appropriate, complex text and text-based writing. This session is designed to equip district and school leaders with the foundational knowledge needed to align instruction to the revised standards with clarity and confidence.
