As promised, the new English Language Arts (ELA) Standards have been beautified and are ready for sharing. Please distribute this document widely throughout your district/charter to ensure implementation of these new standards for this school year (23-24). This document will also be available on the USBE website.

We have enjoyed the amazing conversations and questions coming out of the ELA standards tour this summer. Thank you to those who have been willing to host us at their district offices and schools 😊.
