KY Rolling Out New Accountability Measures

September 8, 2018

Interim Kentucky Commissioner of Education Wayne Lewis writes in the Courier Journal about the state’s new ESSA-based accountability plan, and what it means for students, schools, and districts. “Any new accountability system or any new measure of school performance highlights new areas for growth, and that’s a good thing,” says Lewis. “That new area for growth for many of our schools will be reducing learning and performance disparities between student groups.”
