• How can I sign up my child for a free screening?

  Currey Ingram CORE offers free early reading screenings for any student in grades K - 2 in the Nashville community and beyond. These screenings are designed to provide families who are concerned about their child's reading development with more information about whether their child is likely to encounter difficulty learning to read. A trained Currey Ingram staff member will administer the assessment and discuss the results with families, providing individualized feedback and recommending next steps. Screenings can be conducted virtually or in-person on Currey Ingram's campus. Click here to reserve an appointment, and click here for additional information.
