Universal Screener Results: Rtl Recommendations
After students have taken the Universal Screener, the RtI Recommendations report will be available. The RtI (Response to Intervention) Recommendations report is used to view student results from a specific administration of the Universal Screener. From its results, you can identify students requiring further evaluation and potential intervention as part of the RtI process. Results are based on a common vertical scaled score.
The assessments are composed of Math and Reading/Language Arts and are developed for each grade level, K-10. To identify readiness, they include multiple grade levels to allow sufficient “reach” to identify student weaknesses. For grades 2 and above, approximately 50% of the test content is from the target grade, 25% from one grade below and 25% from two grades below. Given the rapid development at that level, the kindergarten assessment has two different forms reflecting earlier and later kindergarten content.
The test contains 20 – 35 items and does bookmark.
Questions are not randomized to allow the teacher to read the assessment aloud as needed. As a formal assessment, proper test administration measures must be taken.

What Should You Look For on This Report
As you read the report, notice the following items:
When viewing individual student results, be sure to notice the amount of time the student spent taking the assessment. Did they rush through it? Is it an adequate amount of time?
The overall score and overall readiness reflect data for all strands assessed. The individual strand information is displayed for only key strands, which are strands where enough questions were asked to be able to identify it as a student strength or weakness.
What is the student's grade level equivalency? Is it on, above, or below their actual grade level?
What is their percentile ranking (PR)? Learn more about that here.
Which students have not completed the Universal Screener? These are the students listed under "No Percentile Ranking"
