Kindergarten School Readiness Data Collection
Overview
The purpose of the Kindergarten School Readiness (KSR) data collection is to provide baseline data for measuring improvement in students' knowledge and skills over time and to collect data needed to fulfill statutory requirements for an annual legislative report.
Data reported to CDE will be from the initial fall assessment window. The initial assessment is to be completed within the first 60 calendar days of the school year as required by HB 15-1323. The collection will be open from mid-October to mid-December each year.
Announcements
The State Board of Education also voted in June 2023 to add assessment tools to the menu that measure a single domain. This warranted file layout changes for the 24-25 collection.
