Two public hearings have been scheduled so Kansans can share their comments on revised English Language Proficiency Standards, which help K-12 students who speak limited English be successful in school.

The current English Language Proficiency Standards were adopted in December 2013.

The Kansas State Board of Education at its July 2018 meeting heard the first recommendations for districts/systems seeking accreditation under the new Kansas Education Systems Accreditation (KESA) process.

The Kansas State Board of Education will conduct its next monthly meeting July 10 and 11 in Topeka. 

Two Kansas educators are being recognized for their outstanding teaching skills through the prestigious Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching (PAEMST) program.
