I'm in RTI training through the local Ed. Service District and our trainer hadn't heard of the RGR Survey… so I gave him a copy I had with me. He was really impressed by it…
RGR has become, for Hoover Elementary, our universal screener. The Grouping Matrix is incredible -- our district has made extensive use of it and I love the curriculum placement that it offers!
