“ Ms. Briggs is our reading specialist here at Ridgecrest. DIBELs and many other assessments and curriculum are new for teachers at our school this year. Ms. Briggs has offered multiple learning opportunities, created countless resources, and is always available to answer any questions or guide you through. She is an absolute rockstar, and I wouldn't be able to do it without her! ”
