Developmental Reading Assessments

Weber teachers are busy giving all students the Emergent Literacy Assessment (team 1) or the Developmental Reading Assessment. Testing will be completed by the end of September. You may feel free to contact your student's teacher to see results. Please note that a new edition of the Developmental Reading Assessment (DRA) for grades kindergarten through three has been adopted by the District. This assessment gives a comprehensive view of the reading and writing behaviors of children. The scores indicating proficiency are different in this new edition because new parts have been added to the assessment. If you notice a change in your child’s proficiency score, it may reflect the more comprehensive nature of the new edition of the assessment rather than a decline in your child’s skills and ability as a reader.
