Description

Star Assessments offer a comprehensive system for understanding student achievement and growth in reading, math, early literacy, and more across grades Pre-K through 12. Combining CAT and CBM assessments, Star delivers rapid, research-backed data that equips educators to identify skill gaps, organize instructional groups, and guide next-step learning. All assessments are designed to minimize testing time while generating highly precise insights that drive targeted instruction. Administrators can review districtwide performance through interactive dashboards that highlight growth, compare demographic groups, and reveal long-term trends. Teachers receive clear information about which skills students are ready for, along with embedded instructional resources to support immediate action. Star’s strong correlations with state summative exams, ACT, and SAT allow educators to forecast future achievement early in the year. The system also includes dedicated tools for multilingual learners, dyslexia risk identification, and mastery tracking. With decades of research and billions of data points informing its design, Star empowers schools to confidently support every student’s learning journey.
