The
Beginning-of-Year (BOY) ATLAS Math Screener results and testlets for kindergarten
through second grade are now available to school districts. Attached are the
BOY guidance and presentation slides to support the administration of testlets.
The purpose of the Beginning-of-Year (BOY) K-2 ATLAS math screener is to assess basic foundational
skills in math, guide instructional decisions, and provide support for students who do not meet
grade-level foundational skills. The screener shall determine students who demonstrate readiness or
potential risk in basic foundational math skills. This assessment focuses on a subset of Arkansas math
standards to help teachers determine if a student may struggle with basic foundational math skills,
including counting, place value, comparison, and addition/subtraction across the following math strands:
Number & Place Value and Computation & Algebraic Reasoning.
