 Scale Score Explanation and Kindergarten Readiness Performance Levels
The Kindergarten Readiness Assessment will provide parents, teachers, and early childhood
providers with a common understanding of what children know and are able to do upon entering
school. The primary purpose of the Kindergarten Readiness Assessment is to improve the quality
of classroom instruction and other services provided to students from birth to 3rd grade. STAR
Early Literacy developed by Renaissance Learning, Inc. is the assessment administered to
provide educators with this information.
530 Cut Score Explanation
Seventy percent mastery of knowledge and skills in early literacy and numeracy at the beginning
of kindergarten was selected as the level of mastery for the kindergarten readiness benchmark.
Data shows it provides both a measurable distinction between Pre-K and kindergarten skills on
STAR Early Literacy and a strong prediction of proficiency as measured by STAR Reading in
Grade 3. The minimum beginning-of-year kindergarten scale score associated with 70% mastery
is 530. This score was identified to be the beginning-of-year kindergarten readiness benchmark
(Renaissance Learning 2014). Based on extensive research, 85% of students scoring 530 or
higher at the beginning of kindergarten are proficient in reading at the end of grade 3. A spring
scale score of 681 places students on a trajectory to meet end of grade 3 reading expectations.

Student is beginning to understand that printed text has meaning.
Early The student is learning that reading involves printed words and
Emergent 300-487 sentences, and that print flows from left to right and from the top
Reader to the bottom of the page. The student is also beginning to
identify colors, shapes, numbers, and letters.
Student can identify most of the letters of the alphabet and can
match most of the letters to their sounds. The student is also
Late beginning to “read” picture books and familiar words around the
Emergent 488-674
Reader home. Through repeated reading of favorite books with an adult,
students at this stage are building their vocabularies, listening
skills, and understandings of print.
Student has mastered alphabet skills and letter-sound
relationships. The student can identify many beginning and
Transitional ending consonant sounds and long and short vowel sounds, and is
Reader 675-774
probably able to blend sounds and word parts to read simple
words. The student is also likely using a variety of strategies to
figure out words, such as pictures, story patterns, and phonics.
Student is becoming proficient at recognizing many words, both
in and out of context. The student spends less time identifying
Probable
Reader 775-900 and sounding out words, and more time understanding what was
read. Probable readers can blend sounds and word parts to read
words and sentences more quickly, smoothly, and independently
than students in the other stages of development.
