Educators Rely on i-Ready Diagnostic

While other assessments only report scores using national norms, i-Ready Diagnostic provides normative- and criterion-referenced data. This diagnostic test for students ultimately promotes equitable access and growth for every student—no matter their background. i-Ready Diagnostic also correlates to leading state and national assessments so that students become familiar with the rigor and format they will see on high-stakes tests.

“i-Ready provides a lot of good resources for teachers to graph student growth. It’s a very visual way to show their data, and it’s easy for their families to understand. When the students can see where they’re starting and where they’ve grown, I think that it brings up their expectations because they see that they can do it, and they can see where they want to be.”
