Renaissance Learning, a company in student-centered, pre-K–12 personalized practice and assessment, completed the acquisition of Keyphonics, a provider of web-based phonics assessment. Financial terms were not disclosed. “Detailed awareness of a child’s mastery of phonics skills is one of the most important indicators of early literacy, and we know it is a top priority for teachers and reading specialists to have actionable data they can use to inform their instruction. We look forward to adding KeyPhonics to the Renaissance family, and together providing teachers and administrators with the insights they need to prepare students for reading proficiency,” Todd Brekhus, Renaissance chief product officer.
