Accelerated Reader is a reading program that was implemented at Saint John the Baptist in the spring of 2017. The reading scores of the class of 2018 were very impressive and we, as a staff, believe that this reading program played an integral part in increasing the student's scores.
The way in which this program works is the student chooses a book to read and each book has a point value. The student reads the book and then completes a quiz on the Accellerated Reader website and the score the student receives on the quiz determines the number of points the student earns.
Our first trimester goal for AR points will be 40. The second trimester goal will be 50 points and the third trimester goal is 60 points.
