Tool Search: KG Readiness
The KG Readiness tool allows districts to assess a student's progress towards a successful educational career prior to the start of their kindergarten year.
KG Readiness records CANNOT overlap. This means a student can only have one active record at any given time. A new record can only be added if the previous record has an End Date.
