Tennessee Education Standards Review

Welcome to the Tennessee Education Standards Review website! This website will provide you with the opportunity to review and offer feedback on the state’s academic standards. Standards are the expectations for what students should know by the end of each K-12 school year.

The Tennessee State Board of Education (SBE) is responsible for reviewing academic standards every six years, and recent legislation (Public Chapter 423) specifically outlines the process for review, including this website for public feedback, of the English language arts (ELA), math, science, and social studies standards. There are no standards currently available for review.

Social Studies Standards

The second window of public feedback on revised social studies standards has now concluded. All of the comments submitted to this website during the second review window have been collected, and the standards will again be revised to incorporate this feedback. An appointed Standards Recommendation Committee will make the ultimate recommendation for new social studies standards to the SBE in early 2017. Implementation will take place in the 2019-20 school year.
