Registration is now open for Cohort 5 of LETRS (Language Essentials for Teachers of Reading and Spelling). This statewide initiative equips educators and administrators to strengthen early literacy instruction and consistently implement evidence-based practices that lead to stronger results for students.
The Kentucky Department of Education (KDE) publicly released assessment and accountability data for the 2024-2025 school year on Nov. 19, as required by state statute and the federal Every Student Succeeds Act, showing students performed better in 2025 than they have in recent years across several grade levels and subjects.
Over 1,800 Kentucky educators and administrators are currently a part of the first cohort of LETRS professional learning. Applications for the second cohort, which starts in October, are open now.
