STAR Enterprise!


Parents,
Tomorrow your child will be taking a computerized assessment called the STAR Enterprise test . This test is an updated version of the STAR test that most students are familiar with and have taken. Although there is no preparation required for this test, will you please help us encourage children to do their absolute best? This assessment is nothing to be stressed about, but it will require stamina. So will you help us encourage the students not to give up?
            This assessment will help provide valuable information about your child as a reader. This information is also used to determine your child’s Reading Range, which is something that can be used to help students find books that are a good fit for them. This week, you will receive a report detailing how your child did on their STAR Enterprise test. This will give us good baseline data that will help us to measure your child’s growth as a reader this year! Also, please keep in mind that the STAR Enterprise is only ONE measure of your child’s abilities as a reader.  Please be on the lookout for more information about STAR and Accelerated Reader (AR) this week!


Miss Woods and Mrs. Horn
