Statewide Testing Results

Testing scores from the 2013-2014 school year have been released for schools statewide.  I've pulled the results for the 3rd District from the Courier-Journal's online database and included them below.

These scores represent a whole lot of effort and study from our students, but they couldn't perform at these levels without the hard work and tireless dedication of our teachers — thank those you know or see today!

Click here (http://datacenter.courier-journal.com/projects/2014-kentucky-public-school-test-results/?sf31899164=1) for the C-J data center to search for another county, or compare various counties.

To understand the scoring, I've  included the C-J's brief description here:

Under the Unbridled Learning review, schools receive an overall score of 1-100 based on their achievement in key areas. They then receive a percentile rank among elementary, middle and high schools statewide. They are also judged on whether they met their goal score and receive a classification status — Needs Improvement, Proficient or Distinguished — and whether they are progressing.

The Long Range Transportation Plan

I have received an official notice from the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet that their "Long Range Statewide Transportation Plan" (LRSTP) is now available for public inspection and comment for 45 days – running from May 7, 2014 through June 23, 2014 at close-of-business.

For my constituents and readers, I've provided links below to both the plan itself and the survey which allows for comments to be submitted.  You can find both these links and others that may be useful at the Transportation Cabinet's website.
