Explore the world’s largest annual study of K–12 student reading habits. The new 15th anniversary edition shows you the most popular books at each grade level, exciting new titles, and much more.
Increase math mastery with actionable insight into each student’s math skills and subskills—whether you’re teaching in-person, remotely, or a blend of both. For universal screening, progress monitoring, goal setting, and more.
AWARD-WINNING MATH ASSESSMENT FOR GRADES K‒12
Whether you are testing in person, remotely, or a combination of both, use Star Math data to connect each student at every grade level with the concepts they need for future success.
Whether assessing in person or remotely, Star Math puts assessment data to work for educators, so teachers can spend less time analyzing results and more time differentiating instruction.
Get recommended groupings of students based on both their scaled scores and benchmark categories, or create your own groups for more effective small-group instruction.
Put assessment data in action with Star Math’s instructional planning tools, which identify the specific skills each student group is ready to work on.
One assessment, many uses
There’s no need to over-test students: Star Math can help place students into content from Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, Edmentum™, Classworks®, and more, eliminating the need for separate placement tests for different instructional programs.
As early as sixth grade, Star Math helps you see how students are progressing toward both the ACT and SAT benchmarks for mathematics. Quickly identify students who need additional support to get everyone on track for college and career readiness.
STATE LINKING STUDIES FOR STAR ASSESSMENTS
With Star, you can forecast which students are on track to perform well on your state’s summative test as early as fall—giving you ample time to intervene early and help get all students on track for success.

The student experience
Star Math measures students’ ability to add, subtract, multiply, and divide whole numbers, fractions, and decimals. This domain also covers primes, square roots, percents, and numerical expressions.
Students are asked to graph points and functions, evaluate variables, solve linear and nonlinear equations, simplify expressions, and complete other key algebraic tasks.
Star Math measures students’ ability to identify shapes, lines, and angles; determine and convert measurements; tell time; calculate the perimeter, area, volume, and surface area of shapes; and determine missing measurements or dimensions.
Students are asked to read and answer questions about charts, tables, and graphs; calculate mean and median; make estimates and determine probabilities; and visually represent data sets.
Unlike any other K-12 assessment, Renaissance created learning progressions specifically for English and Spanish. You’ll be able to identify the skills students know in both languages and help chart a path to move them towards mastery.
Powerful Assessment Tools
Lead students toward math proficiency and mastery with a research-based, state-specific learning progression for math. It shows you the continuum of math strategies, skills, and subskills needed for students to achieve grade-level math proficiency in your state.

Star Assessments provide a very precise picture of current skill levels… Star Assessments use color-coded displays as well as at-risk criteria, which can be altered, to illustrate important data. In Star Assessments, it’s easy to see those changes, monitor growth, and set criteria for making decisions.
