Description
STAR Phonics is an online tool developed by Renaissance that assists educators in swiftly and accurately assessing the foundational reading abilities of their students. This assessment evaluates proficiency in 12 essential phonics categories and identifies 102 specific phonics skills, providing educators with comprehensive insights into both the phonics patterns students have mastered and the areas that need further attention. The screening process is quick, usually taking just 2-5 minutes per student, and results are generated instantly without the need for manual data entry. It offers diagnostic reports at various levels, including individual students, classes, and grade-wide assessments; these reports reveal patterns of mistakes and gaps in skills, enabling teachers to customize their instructional approaches for individuals, small groups, entire classes, or even whole grades. Recently, STAR Phonics has introduced new features, such as audio pronunciations for every assessment word to enhance accuracy in scoring, as well as improved capabilities for exporting screener data categorized by phonics and by individual words. With these advancements, educators can gain a deeper understanding of their students’ phonics skills, ensuring that instruction is as effective and targeted as possible.

Raptor's innovative StudentSafe technology integrates various systems that empower educational institutions to identify, document, assist, and oversee the well-being of their students. This user-friendly yet comprehensive platform allows for the documentation of minor issues, the execution of behavioral threat assessments, and the evaluation of suicide risks, all while effectively managing these cases to foster positive outcomes for students. Users can assign tasks, set reminders, and guide students toward a constructive trajectory, while also having the capability to escalate any serious concerns that may indicate a threat to self or others. By consolidating fragmented information into a secure, centralized system, it becomes easier to identify patterns not only for individual students but also for broader trends within different groups. The case management feature of StudentSafe supports teams in organizing their cases and monitoring the effectiveness of interventions over time, thus ensuring that each student receives the necessary support and follow-up care. Ultimately, this integrated approach enhances collaboration among school staff, leading to better overall mental health management for students.
