Scholastic Reading Counts at 
Anaheim Hills Elementary

Picture
SRC is a computer based reading assessment program that assesses reading comprehension through quiz of ten questions that can only be taken at school.  There are over 50,000 SRC quizzes available. Many of these titles can be found in our school library and the public library.  For more information on how to find books with SRC quizzes click here.

The purpose of Reading Counts is to provide students with an opportunity to:
• Select their own books and instill a love of reading.
• Set, track, and accomplish goals. 
• Receive recognition for accomplishing goals.

Guidelines and Procedures for Scholastic Reading Counts:
• All students will be rewarded equally and held to the same standards throughout their years at AHES.
• Awards and points carry over every year until the student leaves AHES.
• Students must take all tests independently.  Parents are not allowed to help.
• Each book is assigned a point value by Scholastic.
• Students must answer 7 answers out of 10 questions correctly to pass a quiz.
• If students do not pass a quiz, they may retake a quiz up to 3 times, but they must wait 24 hours between attempts.  After three tries, they may no longer access that quiz.
• If lanyards or medals are lost, students can purchase replacements from the PTA.  Bookmarks and pencils will not be replaced.

Testing Times for Students:
• During Library visits.
• During class.


Awards:
• Awards will be given on a monthly basis, usually the first week of the month.
• Award winners’ names will be posted in the Library.
• Every Wednesday is “Lanyard Day”!  Students are encouraged to wear their lanyards on Wednesday to earn PAWS tickets.
