IREAD is a reading assessment that measures foundational reading skills through grade three, including students’ ability to read and understand grade-level text. IREAD was developed in accordance with the 2010 Indiana General Assembly passage of Public Law 109, which required the evaluation of reading skills for all third grade students to ensure they can read at grade level prior to fourth grade.
