The Kansas State Department of Education’s Accreditation and Design (AD) team hosted the first Kansas Education Systems Accreditation (KESA) meeting of the 2023-2024 school year on Tuesday, Oct. 10.
KESA check-in - One-on-one between the system and the KSDE AD team.
Peer review - Each system has the following options for peer collaboration in 2023-2024:
For each peer review option above, a minimum of one in-person meeting is required for this year.
Set, revise or maintain your system’s goals (measurable, student-centered).
Future state - KESA 2.0 beginning 2024-2025: KSDE intends to make accreditation synonymous with school improvement so that when systems are doing the work of improvement, they are also doing the work of accreditation. Pending Kansas State Board of Education approval, accreditation will be based on a system’s implementation of fundamental practices, student results and compliance. In addition, KSDE is revising the annual accreditation review process to increase support and accountability on a yearly basis.
