Development of the Science, Technology, and Math Assessment for the School Readiness Curriculum Based Measurement System

2016

Texas School Ready (TSR) is a comprehensive preschool teacher training program that combines a research-based, state-adopted curriculum with ongoing professional development and progress monitoring tools to help children be more prepared for kindergarten and beyond. Teachers from child care centers, Head Start programs, and public school pre-kindergarten participate in TSR. Throughout the school year, teachers enrolled in TSR are provided tools to help them learn more about the specific instructional needs of the children in their classrooms and how to support children using engaging lessons and activities. Since 2003, TSR has positively impacted nearly 500,000 children and 25,000 early childhood teachers in Texas.
