Indiana Statewide mCLASS Formative Assessments

Introduction

Continuing a successful partnership with Indiana

Since 2008, we’ve had the privilege of supporting one of your most important objectives — making sure every child can read by third grade. We are grateful for the trust you’ve placed in us to provide teachers and leaders with the real-time data they need to make instructional and professional development decisions every day.

With support and insight from Indiana educators, we’ve been able to improve our solutions for you and educators nationwide. Your feedback has informed changes to the way we deliver assessments, helped us improve our reporting, and prompted us to create a brand new benchmark book set, Amplify Atlas, in response to your need for better CCSS-aligned texts, along with guidance for the transition to the IN CCR standards.
