Accelerated Reader

 

Accelerated Reader is an important part of our reading program.  We use the web-based version, and students now have a large selection of books to choose from.   Students are required to earn a specific amount of AR points each quarter with a passing grade of 80% or greater.  Please note that although the program will give partial points for scores less than 80%, those points will not be counted.  Your child will receive a weekly student report, letting you see his/her accumulated points for each quarter.

First Grade AR Point Requirements:
 

1st Qtr 2nd Qtr 3rd Qtr 4th Qtr
2 pts. 4 pts. 5 pts. 6 pts.

 

 

 

 

Book Adventure.com

BookAdventure.com is a site that offers tests similar to our AR tests.  Your child can take tests and earn prizes for their scores.  It's a great way to practice taking tests.
