Ready for Kindergarten vs KinderReady Path

This app has been created for kindergarten teachers who are administering the Kindergarten Readiness Assessment (KRA) in supported states. It is intended for in-school use and is password protected for use only by teachers administering the KRA in those states. __ The Ready for Kindergarten: KRA app allows teachers to administer a subset of items to kindergarten students in those states that are administering the KRA. Scores are fed directly into the KReady system where they will provide information to teachers as well as school and district leaders about what children are able to do as they transition into kindergarten. The KRA was developed by a consortium including the Maryland State Department of Education, the Ohio Department of Education, the Johns Hopkins University Center for Technology in Education, and WestEd.
