Edgewood Elementary ATLAS Screener Begins Next Week! 📚
Edgewood families, the ATLAS Screener will begin next week. This short assessment will be given one time this school year to help teachers better understand what our scholars already know, what they are ready to learn, and how we can best support their growth.
The ATLAS Screener is not a pass-or-fail test. It is simply a tool to help our teachers plan instruction and meet the needs of every scholar.
Attendance and punctuality are especially important during the screening period. Screeners are given in the morning, so scholars should arrive on time by 7:45 a.m.
Thank you for partnering with us to give our scholars the best start possible this school year! 💛🖤
On time. Every day. Ready to R.O.A.R.!
