Ferron & Associates March 19, 2014
Kindergarten Entry Developmental Profile for Lake County
What is KEDP? KEDP Data Collection Process Schools That Responded Demographics of Children in KEDP Results of KEDP Average Scores by Developmental Area Percent of Children Entering
Kindergarten “Ready for School”
Developmental Data Collection for Children Entering Kindergarten Structured observation tool completed by
kindergarten teachers. Not a diagnostic tool, and not a standardized test. Snapshot only.
Screens children entering kindergarten on 15
indicators across five developmental skill areas: Social Interpersonal (3 indicators) Language Comprehension and Expression (3
indicators) Cognitive Competence (2 indicators) Math skills (3 indicators) Literacy Skills (4 indicators)
What do we want to learn from the yearly KEDP?
What does the KEDP say about how children are doing on these skills areas as they enter kindergarten?
How are the KEDP results changing over time?
What factors may influence children’s readiness for school as measured by KEDP process?

KEDP: Four Point Rating Scale Integrating (4): Child typically and
regularly exhibits the behavior. Building (3): Child exhibits the behavior
on an increasingly regular basis. Developing (2): Child is just beginning
to exhibit behavior. Exploring (1): Child has never exhibited
the behavior.
What is “Ready for School”? Children are assessed as being “Ready
for School” if their average scores have reached the level of “Integrating”(4) or “Building” (3)

Summary Comments: KEDP 2013 2013 KEDP dataset included 77% of enrolled K-children &
participation by 11 of 12 public schools with K-programs. Overall, data collected at mean of 2.2 months of K-
experience. Overall, 54% of children entering kindergarten in fall 2013
scored “ready for school” based on the KEDP. Math and Literacy skills remained strengths, while social
interpersonal, language comprehension and expression, and cognitive skills lagged in readiness.
Age and Pre-K experience prior to entering kindergarten were significant factors in school readiness based on the KEDP.
Other factors such as a child’s health status, ease in transitioning to kindergarten, family’s economic status, and parent’s education may also potentially impact readiness.
