Degrees of Reading Power
(DRP)
As part of its continuing effort to ensure that
students acquire the skills necessary for effective reading
comprehension, the
York County School Division will administer the Degrees of Reading
Power (DRP)
assessment beginning in the 2005-2006 school year.
The
DRP will be administered to students in
grades 3-8 in the fall and in the spring.
The
DRP monitors students’
reading comprehension
levels and assists teachers in providing appropriate reading
instruction for
students. DRP results indicate
students’
understanding of what they have read and also provide a source of
information
about students’ annual reading growth. Scores
from the DRP assessments do not affect
students’ grades.
