    *What are the SRI and SMI Assessments? (parent presentation)

    *SRI test consists of age appropriate tests for K-12 students.  The test is adaptive. This means that the questions are at the student's level. The SRI test focuses on letter ID, phonics, and comprehension.

    *The SRI test is measured by Lexile.  A Lexile measure is a valuable piece of information about either an individual's reading ability or the difficulty of a text. The student's lexile level is then placed into a performance level. The performance levels are described below.

    These levels are broken down into four performance levels.
    *Advanced: student scoring in this range exhibit superior performance on grade level appropriate skills and concepts.
    *Proficient: Students scoring in this range exhibit competent performance on grade-level performance skills & concepts.
    *Basic: Students scoring in this range exhibit minimally competent performance on grade level skills and concepts.
    *Below Basic: Students scoring in this range do not exhibit minimally competent performance on grade level skills and concepts.
