SECTION VII
What is expected Lexile growth?
The proficient Lexile performance ranges presented in SECTION V are the ranges which should be achieved by a student before
the end of a given school year. Ideally a student should be at his or her Lexile proficient range for their grade commencing with
the beginning of the school year. An anticipated rate of growth equaling one year of reading development is 140 Lexile points for
a student in grades 3-5, 70 Lexile points for a student in grades 6-8, and 50 points for a student in grades 9-12 Students who
are "At Risk" or even "Basic" Lexile may need to attain more than a years growth in a years time. This type of growth is
possible within an READ 180 classroom that is effectively operating at model standards.
