Periodic Data Collection: READ Literacy Programs and Assessments

Overview

The Colorado READ Act requires districts to report specific student, school, and district level data to CDE to determine and report on the important milestones in implementing key provisions of S.B. 19-199. The information provided in these reports is intended to assist the Department, the State Board of Education, the Governor, and the public in monitoring the implementation of and identifying the results achieved in implementing the Colorado READ Act.

Districts must annually report the READ Act administered interim and diagnostic assessments along with the core, supplemental, and intervention instructional literacy programs for grades K-3 for each school operated by the LEP (including charter schools).
