ACHIEVE - WHAT'S YOUR LEVEL?

Do you want to get a higher score on your FSA Reading and improve your lexile score?  Do you have 30-45 minutes to spare?  Then complete one or more Achieve Articles every day while trying to score 88% or higher on the first try.  Making an 88 or 100 on the first try in Achieve helps improve your Lexile Reading Level; scoring 75% leaves it sitting still and not growing; and scoring less than 75% may drop the lexile level. So remember:  take your time, do not rush through the articles, and do your best the very first time! 

Sixth grade lexile goal is a minimum of 925
Seventh grade lexile goal is a minimum of 975
Eighth grade lexile goal is a minimum of 1025
