Assessment Description
Many
students struggle academically across content areas because they are performing
below grade level in reading/literacy. The ability to assess students, analyze
assessment data, and work with parents/guardians and other stakeholders to
develop specific intervention plans is critical in helping all students achieve
their academic goals. Clearly communicating information about student skills
and proposed interventions to all stakeholders can ensure collaboration in the
development and implementation of a reading intervention plan.
