Testing can be a scary word, especially in kindergarten. We try to phrase it as showing how smart you are. There will be several times throughout the year for students to show everything that they have learned.

There will be several assessments completed with your child's assistance throughout the year. This screener will measures their basic reading skills. You will receive a letter home telling all about the scores and ways you can help your child. This is the single assessment with the most parent questions; this is great, and I will be happy to answer all of them. Contact me to schedule a time to chat.
