KSDE Newsroom

Mark your calendars to join upcoming KSDE-sponsored virtual and in-person professional learning for FastBridge and Star

If your district previously used or is currently implementing Star Assessments, you may have virtual learning to schedule. Schools can use their remaining virtual learning for any 60-minute session(s) in the Professional Learning Catalog. You do not need to hold the session by Sept. 1, but you do need to schedule it by then so that it does not expire.  Reach out to scheduling@renaissance.com for more information.
