Accelerated Reader (AR)
Students at HCCS participate in the Accelerated Reader (AR™) program. AR is a computer program that helps teachers manage and monitor children’s independent reading practice. Your child picks a book at his own level and reads it at his own pace. When finished, your child takes a short quiz (STAR Assessment) on the computer. Passing the quiz is an indication that your child understood what was read. AR gives both children and teachers feedback based on the quiz results, which the teacher then uses to help your child set goals and direct ongoing reading practice. Parents can view their child’s progress by logging in to Renaissance Connect.
Reflex Math
Adaptive and individualized, Reflex is an effective system for mastering basic facts in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division for grades 2+. Full of games that students love, Reflex takes students at every level and helps them quickly gain math fact fluency and confidence. Educators and parents love the powerful reporting that allows them to monitor progress and celebrate success.
