Student Progress Monitoring Report

Who can do this with default capabilities?

District Level Administrators, District Staff, School Level Administrators, School Staff, Teachers

The Student Progress Monitoring Report is used to identify students who are having difficulty reaching benchmarks. Once those students have been identified, you can begin to organize your intervention plan. Students who are not reaching a specific benchmark can be further divided into groups to help you focus your resources on the students who need the most help.

Although kindergarten students can take the Star Math test, the Student Progress Monitoring Report cannot be created for them.

The report will indicate if any students took a test using extended time limits, with a footnote explanation.

To get the most out of the Student Progress Monitoring Report, it is best to have intervention goals set for the students (click Set Goals for Progress Monitoring above the Customization Options table).

There are three ways to print a Student Progress Monitoring Report; use whichever method you prefer, then go to step 1:

From the Star Math Reports page

  1. Click Star Math on the Home page, then click Reports.
  2. Select your school from the School drop-down list, if necessary.
  3. Click Student Progress Monitoring on the Select Report page.

From the Screening, Progress Monitoring & Intervention page

  1. Click Star Math on the Home page, then click Screening, Progress Monitoring & Intervention.

  2. If necessary, use the School drop-down list to choose your school.
  3. Click Progress Monitoring under "Reports" in the gray sidebar on the left side of the screen.

From a student search

  1. Click Star Math on the Home page, then click Screening, Progress Monitoring & Intervention.

  2. Use the School drop-down list to choose a school, if necessary.
  3. Click Progress Monitoring & Goals .

  4. In the Search for Student area of the screen , you can enter all or part of a student's name in the appropriate fields to use as search criteria, or you can enter the student's ID number. You may also use the Grade or Class drop-down lists to narrow your search to students in a particular grade or class.

    For teachers who have had the Manage Screening, Progress Monitoring & Intervention capability removed, choosing All Classes from the Class drop-down list will only include students from their own classes.

  5. Click Search .
  6. A list of students matching your search criteria will be presented . Students who fit your search criteria but have not taken a test yet will have a dash shown in place of a PR score. Click the name of a student.
  7. On the Student Detail page, click Generate Progress Report .



    If you can't click Generate Progress Report, it is because the student has taken only one test, so progress across tests cannot be shown.

  1. Select the options you want to customize for this report on the Report Options page. When you customize this report, you can choose these options:
