CCS Adopts New Reading Testing Program

The school has changed its "Reading Counts" testing program to the "Accelerated Reader (AR)" testing program. One benefit of the change is that the school has a subscription to AR that will allow our students to have access to over 100,000 quizzes. Because "Accelerated Reader" is web-based, we will always have the most up-to-date quizzes available, plus all the quizzes that the vast AR program already offers to schools.

Beginning June 16, we will offer the AR quizzes at the school. Quizzes are available for students in upcoming second through twelfth grades. First graders are not required to take reading tests until later in the school year. Therefore, the program will not be available to upcoming first graders before the start of school.

One of the many benefits of the Accelerated Reader program is the ability for parents to see if any book has a test available. If you purchase a book or check one out from the public library you need only go to the AR Book Finder to determine whether the book has a quiz and the grade level of the quiz. Simply follow the directions on the website.

  

The website is www.arbookfind.com.
