The counselor told me that they were thinking of changing the universal screening grade to third grade, which makes sense to me as I'm told these tests are more accurate in older children.
In our district they currently do universal testing in second grade with programs starting in 3rd. They are thinking about changing testing to 3rd, but us parent advocacy group leaders want to keep it at second. We already feel like that's late because kids can loose their spark even by then. My DD was utterly deflated in second grade.
