From grade 3 to grade 12, students in Cambridge take iReady tests in the fall, winter, and spring. These tests for reading and writing help teachers and students figure out what they know and track their progress throughout the year. Here you see Ms. Christina and Ayden Scott-Williams (4th grade) taking an iReady test in style and comfort!
