WHO? Ohio's Kindergarten Readiness Assessment Revised is for all children enrolled in a public school, and those chartered non-public schools that have opted in to participate in the assessment.
WHAT?
The assessment measures your child's knowledge and abilities in four areas: social skills, language and literacy, mathematics, and physical well-being and motor development.
WHEN?
WCS Kindergarteners will take the KRA August 19 - 22.
WHY?
When the assessment is complete, teachers will have information to share with families. The information will help families and teachers work as partners so that children are successful in school.
HOW?
There are three ways for your child to show what he or she knows and is able to do.
- Selecting an answer to a question.
- Performing a requested task.
- Being observed by the teacher during school or at recess.
Your child’s kindergarten teacher will be glad to answer any questions you have about the KRA and how you can support your child’s growth and development throughout the kindergarten year.
