New Ordering Process
A new Brigance K Screen material ordering process has been developed by Curriculum Associates. The downloadable form and instructions are now available on the Curriculum Associates Kentucky webpage. It is a fillable spreadsheet with three tabs.
District K Screen contacts will save and email the new order form directly to FulfillmentOps@cainc.com. The window for placing orders is extended through April 17 .
For more information, email Jennifer Akin.
Training Updates
The March 26 and March 27 Training of Trainers (TOT) sessions are postponed. A virtual training option will be provided at a later date. The TOT refresher webcast also is delayed. The new training information will be communicated through future K Screen Updates.
The July 22 Training of Trainers session is still open for registration, however any changes will be communicated through future K Screen Updates.
Screening Method (Repeat)
Schools and districts may elect to use iPads to document student screening results in lieu of ordering data sheets. It is possible to enter student responses directly into the Online Management System (OMS) without recording responses on data sheets.
Please remember the following points if choosing to screen with iPads:
- The OMS will not be active until mid-August, therefore screening students on an iPad should begin after school starts. Additionally, there are often adjustments needed when the OMS initially goes live. It is recommended that schools recording results with iPads schedule screening for mid to late August.
- Keep in mind screening results must be filed in each student’s cumulative folder. If screening with iPads, the student answer data sheet (not summary report) must be printed from the OMS and placed in each student’s cumulative folder.
- If choosing to screen with iPads in lieu of using data sheets, please email Jennifer Akin for order tracking purposes.
Prior Setting Form (Repeat)
The prior setting form is available in English and can be found on the Common Kindergarten Entry Screener webpage. Remember, you may collect prior settings information at any time, not only during the screening window. It is recommended that you include this form in your kindergarten registration packet.
K Screen Contacts
Please ensure this update reaches the appropriate district contact for kindergarten screening. If district and building contact updates need to be made, email Jennifer Akin.
