Issaquah School District: I-Ready Score Reports Available Now In Family Access For Grades 1- 5

Press release from the Issaquah School District:

October 19, 2021

1. No one assessment captures all a student is able to do. School staff will use i-Ready scores along with other assessments and observations to determine your student’s learning needs.

2. The assessment reports indicate achievement in several areas of reading and math using three descriptors.

• Approaching Grade Level means the student is working toward the level of proficiency expected by the end of their grade level. This is an appropriate and expected score for a student in the fall.
• At or Above Grade Level means the student has demonstrated proficiency of their year-end grade level standards.
• Needs Improvement means the student has a gap or difficulty in that area and would benefit from support.

3. i-Ready is an academic skills assessment. It is referred to as a screener or a diagnostic, but it is NOT a test that can diagnose a learning disability.

The i-Ready Family Center provides extensive information about i-Ready for families, including videos and documents in multiple languages. Guidance for families to help understand i-Ready and how they can support their child are available in English, Spanish, Portuguese and Haitian Creole.

• Learn general information about i-Ready assessments.
• Learn about i-Ready Reading as a Literacy Screener.
