The public comment window is now officially open --it stays open for about

​2​

 weeks, so please comment on the new standards.  It is especially helpful if you are able to compare the old standards to the new standards. 

Andrew has very graciously added a link to Dr. Peggy Wenner's page right off of the IATLC web page --IATLC.org --or you can go directly to Peggy's page to find the public comment link.

I have attached copies of the new standards and the performance indicators as well.  You will also see a copy of the proposed Interdisciplinary Humanities Standards - this would be a pretty specific course and teachers would need to meet the Humanities certification requirements in order to teach it, but it may impact some districts and is also open for public comment right now as are the new standards for art, music, theater, dance, media arts etc... All of these are available from Peggy's webpage.
