The reading score is often the last signal
Reading growth rarely slows all at once.
Before benchmark scores move, teachers often notice smaller changes. A student abandons books sooner. Reading choices narrow. Independent reading becomes avoidance. Confidence begins to fade during discussion.
These are not soft signals. They may be early instructional data.
When district and campus teams can see both skill progress and reading behavior, they have a better opportunity to respond before disengagement becomes a pattern.
