Overall Satisfaction with Renaissance Star Assessments
In our district, we use Renaisance Star Assessments to look at ZPD and the instructional level. We use it to measure what the students still need help with while allowing them to check out books from our library using the ZPD that is recommended. We test our students 3 times a year BOY, MOY and EOY. The growth is used to measure teacher input at the end of year with other state assessments.

- Give a bit more time
- Need a bigger time up reminder

We use state assessments while I love using Renaissance Star, it is more independent. For 1st graders, are not independent and it is overwhelming. The State testing is broken down into parts and allows the students to slowly work towards reading and comprehension. There is a place for both and the way we use both in conjuction to each other is very helpful.
