Summer Bridge
Your child will take the FAST Star Early Literacy assessment three times during the VPK school year. If on the third assessment they:
- Scored below the 25th percentile
- Could not complete the practice items for any reason, including non-English speaker
- Could not complete the assessment because it is inappropriate for their needs (e.g., child’s Individual Education Plan (IEP) requires paper-based testing)
Then they are eligible for extra support with Summer Bridge.
