K-2 iReady Assessments start today! This week our youngest learners will be engaging in their first reading and math assessments of the year. iReady's computer adaptive assessments will allow us to pinpoint each student's current learning levels so that we can tailor instruction to best help each student grow. Please help us remind your students that all they need to do is their individual best! If you have any questions about iReady, please feel free to contact Heather Davis at hdavis@artsk12.org or your child's teacher.
