Scale Score Explanation and Kindergarten Readiness Performance Levels

The Kindergarten Readiness Assessment will provide parents, teachers, and early childhood providers with a common understanding of what children know and are able to do upon entering school. The primary purpose of the Kindergarten Readiness Assessment is to improve the quality of classroom instruction and other services provided to students from birth to 3rd grade. STAR Early Literacy developed by Renaissance Learning, Inc. is the assessment administered to provide educators with this information.

530 Cut Score Explanation Seventy percent mastery of knowledge and skills in early literacy and numeracy at the beginning of kindergarten was selected as the level of mastery for the kindergarten readiness benchmark. Data shows it provides both a measurable distinction between Pre-K and kindergarten skills on STAR Early Literacy and a strong prediction of proficiency as measured by STAR Reading in Grade 3. The minimum beginning-of-year kindergarten scale score associated with 70% mastery is 530. This score was identified to be the beginning-of-year kindergarten readiness benchmark (Renaissance Learning 2014). Based on extensive research, 85% of students scoring 530 or higher at the beginning of kindergarten are proficient in reading at the end of grade 3. A spring scale score of 681 places students on a trajectory to meet end of grade 3 reading expectations. For more information on reading proficiency indicators based on Renaissance assessments, please visit https://resources.renlearnrp.com/us/learningprogressions/g3readingindcpr.pdf.
