STAR Math and STAR Reading Results

How smart are our Lower School students? Based on their most recent  STAR Math and STAR Reading tests, the most widely used math and reading assessments in K-12 schools in the United States, they are several grade levels ahead of their peers nationwide!
The GE (Grade Equivalent) score shows how test performance compares with that of other students nationally. A typical 2nd grade student, for example, would have a GE of 2.5 halfway through second grade. Here’s how well our students performed:


Grade

The Grade-Equivalent score compares a child’s performance on grade-level material against the average performance of students at other grade levels on that same material and is reported in terms of grade level and months. If a 5th grade child obtains a grade-equivalent of 10.5 on a standardized math or reading test, it does not mean that child is solving math problems or reading at the mid-10th grade level. It means that she or he can solve 5th grade math problems and read 5th grade material as well as the average 10th grade student can read and solve 5th grade math problems. That child is performing much better than the average 5th grader but most likely would not perform as well if tested using 10th grade material as they have not yet been exposed to 10th grade material.
