[LM_NET] TAR: Reading Counts Reports & Lexile Scores

[Pete Madden <pmadden@ILLINOISALUMNI.ORG>]

As the new year begins I really want to emphasize having students
checkout RC books that are close to their individual Lexile level. The
state of Oregon provides us with state test data that includes Lexile
scores for each student who completed the state reading exam and we pass
this on to the families in our school.

If you're using RC, can you think of a report that will give me a class
snapshot Lexile average for quizzes passed? I will be offering a
school-wide contest with the prize going to the classes that pass the
most quizzes first quarter, yet are reading books most closely aligned
to their individual Lexile levels.

I know there is a report that will show me for each student their
average book Lexile on quizzes passed, and also their alert (warning)
codes that show when they have not passed a quiz at or above their
Lexile level, but these won't to quickly compare classes in a middle
school of 1000 kids.

Thanks!
