Reports-Benchmarks tab-Benchmark Scores

To locate and view student benchmark data, click on the Reports tab then the "Benchmarks" tab. Choose "Benchmark Scores" and you will be directed to a table with student benchmark scores, risk, and suggested progress monitoring.

The Benchmark Scores are provided after each Benchmark administration. They provide a listing of students with their scores which are color-coded to show “Low Risk”, “Some Risk” and “High Risk” based on the patterns of student performance on the Benchmark Assessments. These reports are easily sorted by sub-test (Fluency, for example, or Vocabulary, or Comprehension), to assist in the identification of the specific sub-skills with which a student may need more help.

If the “Suggested Progress Monitoring” box on the Benchmark Report is blank, it could mean one of three things:

1) There are insufficient data available to make a recommendation (a minimum of two benchmark scores are needed to trigger the recommendations)

2) The data available are inconclusive or contradictory (e.g., student does well on one or more of the higher-order measures (WRF or PRF in Gr. K-1; Voc or PRdg in Gr. 2-8) but poorly on one or more of the lower-order measures (Seg, LN, LS in Gr. K-1; PRF in Gr. 2-8)

3) The scores are sufficiently high that ongoing progress monitoring is not recommended.

Scrolling down the page, there are scores for benchmark tests and a table of Risk Ratings for Low, Some, and High risk.
