DE Provides Universal Screening Resources

As the early literacy winter universal screening window opens, many educators and school administrators are preparing to communicate assessment results to parents and families.

The Iowa Department of Education has provided a FAQ document, outreach tips, and talking points designed to support building administrators and teachers in communicating to parents and families of students identified as “at risk” or as having a substantial deficiency in reading based on assessment results.

The DE welcomes your feedback on communication needs around implementation of the early literacy progression law. Send feedback to staci.hupp@iowa.gov.
