AR Requirements

Picture
All students in 6th Grade Literature need to have 10 AR points per quarter. All students in 6th Grade Advanced Literature need to have 15 points per quarter. Each 6th Grade Student needs to read and test over one Literacy book per quarter. The Literacy book can also count towards the students AR points - it is a 2 for 1 book!
