The following pages highlight the data from the 2023-2024 school year.  \nSTATEWIDE READINESS  \nThis year, teachers assessed nearly 59,000 kindergarten children who entered public schools this year. The KRA data for 2023-2024 show1:  \n• 44% of Maryland’s kindergartners demonstrate readiness, entering kindergarten classrooms fully prepared to participate in the kindergarten curriculum. This continues a modest but steady increase from 2022-2023 (42%) and 2021-2022 (40%), the first full school year after COVID-19 caused disruptions to learning.  \n• 32% of children are approaching readiness andwill benefit from personalized instruction based on their individual strengths and needs.  \n• 24% of kindergartners, over 14,000 children, demonstrate emerging readiness andwill require targeted support or interventions to be successful in kindergarten.  \nMany of the kindergartners beginning school this year have risk factors that could impact their readiness for kindergarten; 40% are direct-certified, 17% are multilingual learners, and 11% have an identified disability.  \nSTATEWIDE READINESS OVERTIME  \n60 ~~ ~~  \n50  44% 47%   \n42%   \n40%  \n40   \n30  32% 33% 33% 32%   \n~~ ~~ 21%  \n20 ~~ 24% 26% 27% ~~~~ ~~  \n10 ~~ ~~AdNominKRAistered~~  ~~0  23-24 22-23 21-22 20-21 19-20   \n Demonstrating  \n Approaching  \n Emerging  \nPUBLIC PREKINDERGARTEN AND KINDERGARTEN ENROLLMENT* IN MARYLAND OVERTIME  \n80,000 70,000 60,000 50,000 40,000 30,000 20,000  \n10,000 0  \n60,514  \n31,381  \n2023–2024  \n60,986  \n30,718  \n2022–2023  \n61,535  \n22,840  \n2021–2022  \n58,810  \n23,609  \n2020–2021  \n65,012  \n32,182  \n2019–2020  \n Kindergarten  \n Prekindergarten  \n*Data based on MSDE enrollment numbers as of September 30 of each school year  \nDOMAIN PERFORMANCE  \nThe KRA assesses a child’s readiness for kindergarten by looking at four domains of learning: Social Foundations, Language and Literacy, Mathematics, and Physical Well-being and Motor Development. These domain scores are combined to form a readiness score; a snapshot of each child’s readiness to successfully participate in the kindergarten classroom atthe start of the school year.  \n1 Data provided from the Johns Hopkins University Center for Technology in Education Kindergarten Readiness Assessment System on 2/12/2024  \nWHAT DOES READINESS LOOK LIKE?  \nSOCIAL FOUNDATIONS  \nRecognizes and identifies emotions; resolves conflicts with others; persists with a task; retainsand applies information; solves problems; cooperates with others; seeks and gathers new information.  \nMATHEMATICS  \nKnows number names and counts to 20; identifies small quantities; understands the concepts of adding to and taking away from; sorts, classifies, and compares objects; describes attributes; identifies shapes.  \nLANGUAGE AND LITERACY  \nUnderstands spoken words and sounds; comprehends text; communicates in a variety of situations; produces letter-like shapes and symbols to convey meaning; uses words acquired through conversations and shared reading experiences.  \nPHYSICAL WELL-BEING AND MOTOR DEVELOPMENT  \nUses large muscles to perform physical skills; uses small muscles to perform fine motor skills to play and learn; demonstrates personal health and safety rules and tasks.  \nThis year, the KRA data indicate:  \nKindergarten students across Maryland continue to receive the highest average scores in Physical Well-being and Motor Development and Social Foundations, and the lowest average scores in Language and Literacy and Mathematics.  \nDOMAIN AVERAGE SCALE SCORE  \nSocial Foundations  \nLanguage & Lit","cbCaijymILLgbta2","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaijymILLgbta2","pdf",16221545,38,"English","# Statewide Readiness\n## Statewide Readiness Overtime\n# Domain Performance\n## What Readiness Looks Like\n# Readiness by Jurisdiction\n## Readiness by Jurisdiction Pre/Post COVID-19","[{\"question\":\"How does the report describe risk factors affecting readiness?\",\"answer\":\"It notes that many entering kindergarten students have risk factors impacting readiness, including direct certification (40%), multilingual learners (17%), and children with an identified disability (11%).\"}]","KINDERGARTEN READINESS ASSESSMENT REPORT 2023-2024 | PDF",1792053293,96]
