After Spring testing of Star Reading and Star Math, a computer based adaptive test, Lotus Students improved by 1.8 Grade Equivalent (GE) Level in Math and 1.5 GE in Reading Schoolwide. Average US students improve 1 GE per year.
Star Testing is done 5 times a year. Students' progress is monitored throughout the year and instructions are tailored to students needs. Star Tests are adaptive which means as your student answers a question correctly, the level of the next question will be higher and if s/he answers incorrectly, the level of the next question will be slightly lower. The test finds the level of the student and provides us a clear picture of what your student knows.
Here are the top growing grades in Math and Reading:
| Secondary Math | Growth in GE | Elementary Math | Growth in GE | |
| 9th Grade | 5 GE | 5th Grade | 2.1 GE | |
| 11th Grade | 4.4 GE | 4th Grade | 1.8 GE | |
| 12th Grade | 4 GE | 2nd Grade | 1.4 GE | |
| Secondary Reading | Growth in GE | Elementary Reading | Growth in GE | |
| 8th Grade | 1.7 GE | 5th Grade | 1.7 GE | |
| 7th Grade | 1.6 GE | 4th Grade | 1.3 GE | |
| 6th, 9th, 11th, 12th Grades | 1.5 GE |
Congratulations to all students and teachers for their hard work to accomplish this great success!
