Accelerated Reader Program
At Lincoln, students will be engaged in the Accelerated Reader (AR) program through 6th grade. This program is designed to assess each student's reading level and reading comprehension. After a student finishes reading a book, they will take an AR test on campus. The higher score they receive, the more points they will earn. A score that is not passing will earn 0 points.
Reader’s Den Award
A student's AR points are the determining factor in earning the Reader's Den Award. Each grade level's yearly AR goal is listed below.
- 1st Grade: 50 books plus 6 projects
- 2nd Grade: 30 AR points
- 3rd Grade: 45 AR points
- 4th Grade: 60 AR points
- 5th Grade: 75 AR points
- 6th Grade: 90 AR points or 4,000 pages
verified (or a combination of both)
*AR quizzes may be taken in the
classroom, library, or in the tech lab.
