CA BOCES Success Stories
Stories of Success from School Districts and CA BOCES Instructional Support Services
Pioneer has recently transitioned to FastBridge for Universal Screening Assessments and Progress Monitoring. Our district’s transition to FastBridge significantly improved the efficiency and accuracy of student assessments. The Beginning of Year testing window decreased in time and increased student engagement with the assessment. Using ClassLink for accessibility, teachers and students alike were greeted with ease for the first day of online assessments.
Following the assessments, data team meetings were held, and the data that was presented from the FastBridge reports allowed teachers to plan for targeted intervention groups tailored to students’ individual needs following our MTSS-I structures and process. Special Educators also found that FastBridge data reports would be a useful tool when writing IEP goals, and further, progress monitoring those goals would be completed on FastBridge using the subtests and interventions that are available in FastBridge. Tiered Intervention Groups have started, and teachers are eager to see how FastBridge will continue to support students throughout the school year. Prior to FastBridge, our data collection was time-consuming and inconsistent across schools. After implementation, we streamlined universal screening and progress monitoring, allowing teachers to quickly identify student needs with reliable data. The user-friendly platform also made it easier for educators to collaborate on intervention strategies. Overall, FastBridge empowered teachers and enhanced student support.
