Is parent consent required for DIBELS assessment?
No, parent consent is not required because all children will be participating in the assessment. It is important that parents are informed about the type of assessment that will be taking place with the K – 3 students during the year. In turn, teachers are encouraged to send home parent report after each assessment period and to be prepared to discuss ways in which parents can support the child’s reading achievement from home.
