“An Analysis of Early Literacy Assessment Performance Among Knox County Imagination Library Participants: 2014-15 Knox County Kindergarten Class”
In this study, early literacy data was collected through Knox County Schools’ formative testing to determine how former Imagination Library participants of the 2014-15 Knox County Kindergarten Class performed relative to non-participants on a nationally normed early literacy assessment (STAR Renaissance).
Key Findings:
- Imagination Library Alumni were 2 times more likely to read on grade level in the Fall of their kindergarten year than students who did not participate in the program.
- Imagination Library Alumni significantly outperformed non-Imagination Library Alumni on all measured skills of the Fall administration of Knox County Schools’ early literacy assessment.
