Educational standards were developed so that teachers would have guidelines for instruction and students at each grade level would master essential concepts. There are many standards that need to be instructed. For example, in second grade, there are over fifty standards in language arts which students need to achieve. The Arkansas Department of Education monitors the implementation of all standards and regularly assesses students in grades K-12.
Teachers plans for each unit by specifying the standards that need to be taught and which assessments to use to determine if the students have mastered the essential skills. The districts are taking many steps to make sure that all students are progressing, including hiring math and literacy interventionists, implementing college and Career Readiness Standards.

Chalk Talk: Resources for Budding Astronomers
Most school districts schedule two conferences each year to give parents the opportunity to ask questions and determine their child’s progress. Discuss with your child if there is anything he or she wants you to discuss with the teacher. Before the conference, write down what you want to talk about so you don’t forget anything. Remain on the topic of your child and his or her performance. Write down topics that were discussed so that you can talk with your child about them. It is important that your child understands that you and his or her teacher are working together as a team. Participating in conferences and other school events will help your child know that you are interested in his or her success!
