Academic Check-Ins & Progress Monitoring

Academic check-ins are optional services designed to help you understand where your child is academically, identify strengths and areas that may need attention, and monitor learning progress throughout the year.

Whether you want a beginning-of-year baseline, a closer look at reading or math skills, or a way to monitor growth over time, you can choose the level of support that fits your goals.

Available to Florida Homeschool, PEP, and FES-UA families.

WHICH TYPE OF CHECK-IN DO YOU NEED?

Benchmark Assessment Used to establish a starting point and compare progress at key points during the year.

Diagnostic Assessment Takes a closer look at specific reading or math skills to identify strengths, skill gaps, and areas that may need additional attention.

Progress Monitoring Uses repeated check-ins to follow growth over time and see whether learning is progressing as expected.

START EARLY. CHECK PROGRESS. FEEL MORE CONFIDENT.
An early start + academic check-ins along the way = fewer surprises at the end of the year.
Starting early gives you time to see how your child is progressing, recognize growth, identify areas that may need attention,
and make informed decisions along the way.

ADVANTAGES OF LIVE ZOOM-SUPPORTED ASSESSMENT
Why Choose Live Zoom-Supported Assessment?

Live Zoom support is an optional KT Infinity service for families who would like Terri present during their child’s assessment.

A calm, supported assessment experience. Terri helps the learner get started, understand directions, and move through the session comfortably.
Less for parents to manage. Terri can assist with login questions, directions, and basic troubleshooting during the assessment.
Added structure and oversight. Having a dedicated adult present can be especially helpful for younger learners or students who benefit from additional structure and attention.
Reassurance throughout the session. Parents have the added confidence of knowing Terri is present to support and supervise the assessment process.

Live Zoom support is a great option for families who want additional support, structure, or reassurance during their child’s assessment experience.

ASSESSMENT SUPPORT OPTIONS

Parent-Supervised At-Home Assessment
Complete the assessment at home using the instructions provided by KT Infinity.

This option may work well for families who:

are comfortable managing the assessment session at home
prefer flexibility in when their child completes the assessment
have a learner who works comfortably with a parent nearby
do not need live support during the session

Live Zoom-Supported Assessment
Prefer a little more support? Schedule a live Zoom session with Terri for your child’s assessment.

This option may be helpful for families who want:

live support with getting started
help with directions or technical issues during the session
added structure during the assessment
another adult present so the parent does not have to manage the session alone
a more structured assessment environment

Available support options may vary by assessment. The Service Request Form will show the options available for the assessment you select.

You don’t have to decide based on the assessment name alone.
Tell me what you want to understand about your child’s learning, how often you’d like to check progress, and whether your concern is reading, math, or both. I’ll help you identify the option that best fits your goals.
