All students are required to complete Fall and Spring administrations of PALS-K, including students who made perfect scores in Fall. Most students who scored above the Spring Summed Score in the Fall still have room for improvement. Completing Spring administration (including the optional Word Recognition in Isolation task when appropriate) will allow teachers to determine student growth and will inform instructional decisions as these students prepare to enter first grade.
