The Scaled Score is the most fundamental score produced by Star tests. It ranges from 0 to 1400 and spans years 1 through 13. It is calculated based on the difficulty of the questions and the number of correct responses. The Scaled Score is useful for comparing student performance over time and across years. In Star tests, all other norm-referenced scores are derived from the Scaled Score.
If a student receives a Star Unified Scaled score lower than 615 on a Star Reading test and that student's teacher has a verified email address in Renaissance, the teacher will receive a “Probable Non-Reader” alert:
