Regional and Cohort Support
Each system is assigned a Kansas State Department of Education (KSDE) Accreditation and Design team member who serves as their KESA contact.
Systems receive support based on:
- Region (West, Central, East)
- Cohort (Suburban, Private, Special Purpose, Urban)
This model of support ensures each school system has the opportunity to collaborate as well as receiving consistent coaching and accountability throughout the accreditation process.
