CORE CONTENT
Understanding what all students should know and be able to do is a key to getting results in schools — the central task of school councils. KASC is a leader in developing products that make core content easier to understand and deliver. |

We stack everything Kentucky students should know and be able to do across seven subject areas in brightly colored cards that fit in your hand. With the 2006 update to core content, we offer a separate deck for each level: end of primary, grades 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and high school. We include the Depth of Knowledge information and ways staff, parents, and students can use the cards.
