Early Childhood Toolkit

The Early Childhood Toolkit

was created to serve as a resource guide for superintendents and district leaders to work with families, early childhood providers, and community partners to increase kindergarten readiness.

The toolkit is divided into five sub-sections to help districts identify specific supports for building a strong early childhood emphasis in the school and community setting.

All comments are posted online.

Content teams and key stakeholders will analyze the feedback and propose revisions that would improve the overall quality and appropriateness of the standards to promote college/career-readiness.

The teams will make recommendations on any changes to the Kentucky Board of Education.

If the KBE approves any changes, they would not go into effect until at least the 2016-17 school year to give teachers time to prepare.
