Senate Bill 1, passed in 2009, required new standards for core subjects. Standards are the basis for content that is taught in subjects like reading and mathematics. Kentucky and other states developed common standards for reading and math, so there would be consistency nationwide. 19 What Does It All Mean? Kentucky’s focus is college and career readiness for all students. The new standards will help teachers prepare students for a changing world and connect education with the economy and employment. 20 What Does It All Mean? They will help principals with leadership, planning and making decisions that are best for students. The new Kentucky Performance Rating for Educational Progress (K-PREP) tests are connected to the new, tougher standards. 21 What Does It All Mean? K-PREP replaces the Kentucky Core Content Tests, which were given under the old CATS system. The tests are more challenging and are directly tied to college/career readiness. Students will experience more rigorous curriculum, instruction and tests. 22 Kentucky’s New Assessment and Accountability System What to Expect for the First Release of Data Questions?
