Henderson County Schools will begin administering the Kentucky Summative Assessment on Wednesday, April 29, 2026, with the testing window remaining open through May 18, 2026.
The KSA is the annual statewide assessment given to Kentucky public school students in grades 3–8, 10, and 11. It measures student achievement in reading, mathematics, science, social studies, writing, and editing & mechanics. In addition to academic assessments, students will also complete a Quality of School Climate and Safety Survey.
Per Kentucky regulations, all students enrolled in Henderson County Schools are expected to participate in the assessment.
To support student success, families are encouraged to:
- Be aware of their child’s testing schedule
- Avoid scheduling appointments on testing days
- Emphasize the importance of doing one’s best and carefully following directions
- Ensure students get adequate sleep, eat a nutritious breakfast, and arrive at school on time
“State assessments are an important measure of student learning and progress,” said Brandy Haley. “We appreciate the support of our families in preparing students to do their best.”
Each school will provide families with a detailed testing schedule.
