Center For Initial Screening & Assessment

The Center for Initial Screening and Assessment (CISA) works closely with the Family Registration Center to provide the following initial screenings and assessments for newly registered New Bedford Public School students: 

  • Battelle Development Inventory (Preschool) 
  • ESI3 Early Screening Inventory (Kindergarten) 
  • Pre-IPT (English language proficiency – Preschool) 
  • WIDA Screener (English language proficiency – Grades 1-12) 
  • SLIFE (Students with Limited or Interrupted Formal Education) Assessments 

Results are reviewed with families as one of the first steps we all take together to ensure all students are successful in school!
