Approved Screener List

In addition to the screeners/benchmarks above, schools may use the West Virginia General Summative Assessment (WVGSA) Grade 3 benchmarks for English language arts and mathematics for the beginning, middle, and end of year screeners. Counties will still need to have a dyslexia screener for students in Grade 3 if they choose to use the WVGSA benchmarks.
