St. Benedict Prep Students Continue to Excel on i-Ready Assessments  

In 2021, the Archdiocese of Chicago implemented a system-wide use of i-Ready Diagnostics for standards-based assessment to measure student growth against the Common Core standards in reading and math. In addition, i-Ready assessment also provides teachers real-time data to inform instruction.

i-Ready is an online program that helps determine a student’s strengths and areas for growth. Results help to personalize learning and monitor progress throughout the school year. The i-Ready Diagnostic is an adaptive assessment that adjusts to suit a child’s needs. Each question a student receives is based on their answer to the previous question. A series of correct answers will result in slightly harder questions, while a series of incorrect answers will yield slightly easier questions. The purpose is not to give students a score or grade but to determine how to best support student learning.
