“We are thrilled that the Universal Screeners for Number Sense have been recognized as a state-recommended early numeracy screener in Alabama,” says David Woodward, Founder and President at Forefront Education. “In the current market of impersonal, computer-based assessments, the USNS assessments provide a developmentally appropriate alternative to collect critical information about children’s early numeracy.”
