Growth Assessment Tool (Star)
The Archdiocese of Los Angeles Catholic schools use Renaissance Star as our system-wide growth assessment tool. It is intended to be used as a tool to monitor overall progress and growth, provide benchmark data to identify if students are on track for high school and college readiness and are achieving sufficient growth.
In conjunction with classroom data, teachers can use Renaissance Star to identify students in need of additional (Tier 3) support.
This page will provide you with the tools and resources for setting up and maintaining Renaissance Star at your school site, diocesan-wide analysis reports, and more.
