Kansas eyes Smarter Balanced tests amid Common Core row
Public comment urged a halt to the new standards while the state weighs adopting the Smarter Balanced assessments. Kansas joins SBAC pilot tests with 22 states, shifting from paper and pencil to technology enhanced items and writing prompts as 9,200 students across about 10 percent of classrooms take part in the spring pilot. The remaining 90 percent would use a transitional test from the Kansas University Center for Educational Testing and Evaluation.

Brownback pushes changes to Kansas Court of Appeals selection
Governor Brownback seeks to end the state’s judicial nominating commission and take control of appellate court selections. The move, supported by conservatives, would shift interview openness and reduce public access to applicant names, triggering Senate confirmation timelines and potential constitutional hurdles for Supreme Court changes. Critics charge the policy breaks promises of transparency and risks politicizing the process.
