“Mississippi is the exemplar for rapid progress in student literacy gains, known for ‘The Mississippi Marathon,’ and we’re honored to have been selected by the state as the sole assessment provider to measure kindergarten preparedness,” said Dick Collins, Co-Chairman of the Board at Istation. “We’ve seen what a difference Istation makes for students and teachers across the world, and are excited to become an integral part of Mississippi’s next chapter of huge early learning gains.”
Rooted in the Science of Reading, Istation’s evidence-based assessment technology offers real-time, actionable data and personalized reports, enabling educators to make informed decisions about instruction and support for each child. By streamlining the assessment process, Istation’s solution also allows for more instructional time in the classroom. In 20 minutes or less, Istation’s assessment measures skill levels and grade readiness in a fun, intentional way.
In June, Amira and Istation announced a strategic merger to deliver AI-powered solutions that change classrooms for the better – serving four million K-12 students in all 50 states and 17 countries. The recent merger means that Amira’s impact-proven AI tutor will, over time, enhance and complement Istation’s technology.
