As we approach the middle of the 2024-2025 school year, we will be assessing Kinder-5th grade students using our DIBELS mCLASS reading benchmark assessment throughout the month of January. Students took their beginning of the year assessment in September.
The DIBELS (Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills) assessments are designed to measure your child's progress in essential literacy skills such as phonemic awareness, alphabetic understanding, and reading fluency. These assessments provide valuable data about each child's individual strengths and areas for improvement.
The information gathered from these assessments is crucial as it allows our educators to tailor their instruction to meet the specific needs of each student. By analyzing the results, teachers can identify which skills require additional focus and support, ensuring that every child receives the guidance they need to succeed.
