TX-KEA: What are we required to assess if we use TX-KEA?

Answer

It is a district decision in which assessment domains are measured. It is intentionally designed as a comprehensive multidimensional assessment. While many districts and Kindergarten teachers utilize the entire suite of TX-KEA sub-measures, there is a state-mandated TX-KEA Kindergarten Literacy Screener at BOY. The TX-KEA Literacy Screener includes three separate TX-KEA sub-measures that teachers can complete in 5-7 minutes. CLI Engage also provides a Dyslexia Screener at the end of the school year.
