Accelerated Reader is a computerized reading management program that tracks students' reading level, how they read, and much more. The program design is highly motivational. Students first take a test to determine their reading level. As students pass the tests, the reading level increases. Last and not least, everyone knows and everyone agrees.
Parent involvement is critical to the success of students and schools.
The research indicates that key predictors of student success include the extent to which the family encourages learning, expresses high expectations, becomes involved in the child's school life and becomes involved in community life. At the beginning of the year, all families should have received the Soquel District Family Handbook. Included in the Handbook are District grade level expectations. I encourage you to review these periodically with your child. If by some chance you did not receive a copy, please call the office and we will send it to you with your child.
