i-Ready

Monroe School District uses i-Ready in grades K–8 to help teachers understand student learning, plan instruction, set growth goals, and monitor student progress in reading and mathematics.

i-Ready includes assessments, instructional resources for teachers, and personalized online lessons for students. Together, these tools help teachers identify student strengths, address learning needs, and support progress toward grade-level expectations.

What is i-Ready Inform?

i-Ready Inform, formerly called the i-Ready Diagnostic, is an online assessment students take three times each school year: fall, winter, and spring.

The assessment is adaptive, meaning questions adjust based on each student's responses. This helps teachers identify what students know, what they are ready to learn next, and where additional support may be needed.

i-Ready Inform is not a grade. Teachers use the results alongside classroom work, observations, and other assessments to:

Identify student strengths and areas for growth
Plan instruction and provide targeted support
Set individual student growth goals
Monitor progress throughout the school year

Dual Language: Students enrolled in Dual Language may also take i-Ready Inform de lectura, which provides information about their Spanish reading development.

What is i-Ready Personalized Instruction?

i-Ready Personalized Instruction, also called My Path, provides online reading and math lessons based on each student's learning needs.

These lessons help students strengthen foundational skills, practice new learning, and work toward grade-level expectations.

Personalized Instruction complements classroom teaching and is one of several ways teachers support students in developing the skills they need to be successful.

Understanding Your Child's i-Ready Results

After each assessment window, families can review their student's i-Ready For Families Report. The report provides a snapshot of student learning, including:

Overall performance: How your child is performing in reading and mathematics compared with grade-level expectations
Strengths and areas for growth: Specific reading and math skills where your child is doing well or may need additional support
Progress over time: How your child's performance changes across the fall, winter, and spring assessments

How do families receive their child's results?

Elementary (K–5)

Families receive their child's For Families Report through ParentSquare following each assessment window.

Middle School (6–8)

Families receive instructions for accessing their child's For Families Report through their student's i-Ready account.

Dual Language (K-8)

Families of students participating in Dual Language may also receive results from i-Ready Inform de lectura, the Spanish reading assessment.

How can families use the results?

We encourage families to review the report with their child, celebrate strengths and progress, and talk about areas where they are continuing to grow.

Remember that i-Ready Inform is just one way teachers understand student learning. Results are considered alongside classroom work and other assessments to make instructional decisions.

If you have questions about your child's results or how they are being used to support learning, please contact your child's teacher.
