What Do STAR Assessment Scores Mean for My Child?

The STAR scores show how well your child understands reading and math at grade level. Teachers can modify their classes to fit the needs of their students by using the findings, which also show how students have changed over time. A high score shows they are performing at or above grade level, whilst a low score may suggest they need more assistance. But don’t panic; exam scores are just one measure of learning. Even if they understand the material, some kids may struggle with timed exams, while others do well on tests. The most important thing is growth. If your child’s score improves, that’s a great sign they’re learning and making progress. If scores drop, it might mean they need extra help or just had a tough testing day. The best way to use these scores is to talk with teachers and find ways to support your child’s learning in school and at home.
