All students in grades 4-12 are required to take the iReady assessments, just as you had taken in the Fall. This is a district requirement that WCA students are required to participate in. Students in the primary grades are required to take this assessment as part of their winter screening and benchmarking (see newsletter article with details on that). The tests will be available beginning Wednesday, January 6, 2021. The deadline for completing the assessments is Wednesday February, 2021. As a reminder, each test will take about 60-75 minutes to complete, so plan accordingly. Also, there will be 2 assessments to take, Math and Reading, which we suggest taking on separate days.
Students that take the assessments will be given a participation grade for taking the assessment in their English Language Arts and math courses. Your student will not be able to make this grade up if they do not complete it by the deadline. If you have any questions on how to access these assessments, contact your student’s homeroom teacher.
