Reminder: DE Needs to Hear From You About Literacy Standards

Iowa Department of Education Director Ryan Wise is appealing to Iowans to complete the online survey seeking feedback on the state’s literacy standards. The standards outline learning expectations for English-language arts and for literacy in history, social studies, science and other technical subjects. Feedback from the public forums and survey will be used to provide guidance to the review team, which is expected to submit a final recommendation to the State Board of Education later this year. If you haven’t yet done so, please take a few minutes to complete the survey, which will be open through May 13, 2016.
