Overview:
Buffalo Public Schools is a large urban school district located in the greater Buffalo, NY, area. BPS serves over 37,000 students in nearly 70 campuses. Buffalo Public Schools had to overcome several challenges to improve district-wide student achievement. There was the initial question of where and how to focus reform efforts given the sheer size of the district. In addition, BPS had to ensure that the method of assessing and monitoring academic growth had a scientifically research-based foundation. In the 2005-2006 school year Dr Williams, along with district stakeholders, made the decision to utilize the paper-based Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills (DIBELS) screening and progress monitoring assessment as the district-wide K-3 formative assessment.
