READ Data Collections in Data Pipeline
Overview
The Colorado READ Act requires districts to report specific student, school, and district level data to CDE to determine and report on the important milestones in implementing key provisions of S.B. 19-199. The information provided in these reports is intended to assist the department, the state board of education, the governor, and the public in monitoring the implementation of and identifying the results achieved in implementing the Colorado READ Act.
Teacher Training Completion Reporting
Districts must annually ensure and report that all K-3 teachers who provide literacy instruction to students in grades K-3 have completed evidence-based training in teaching reading. Using the Data Pipeline, local education providers are required to report the READ Act teacher training completion status of K-3 teachers who provide literacy instruction to students in grades K-3.
