At Lincoln, students will be engaged in the Accelerated Reader (AR) program 

from 2^nd through 6th grade. This program is designed to assess each student's reading level and reading comprehension. Students take a STAR reading test each quarter to determine their appropriate reading level. After a student finishes reading a book in their AR level, 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.

Readers’ Den Award
 A student's AR points are the determining factor in earning the Readers’ Den Award and participating in the End of Year Reading Celebration. Each grade level's yearly AR goal is listed below.

*AR quizzes are taken at school during school hours.
