i-Ready
What is i-Ready?
i-Ready is an online program for reading and/or mathematics that will help your child’s teacher(s) determine your child’s needs, personalize their learning, and monitor progress throughout the school year. i-Ready allows your teacher(s) to meet your child exactly where they are and provides data to increase your child’s learning gains. i-Ready consists of two parts: Diagnostic and Instruction. We will begin i-Ready testing next week and use this data to formulate MTSS (intervention groups). For additional information on i-Ready, please visit the i-Ready Family Center
