Editing School Network Cut Scores

Editing school network cut scores allows you to change the default values of the Percentile Rank (PR) scores used as benchmarks.

1. Click STAR Reading on the Home page, then click Screening, Progress Monitoring & Intervention.
   
   
2. Select a school from the School drop-down list . Then, click View Benchmarks in the grey sidebar .
   
   
   
   

   If you cannot click View Benchmarks, the selected school does not have any screening dates. Make sure you see the name of the school you want to work with in the School drop-down list.

3. In the top section of the View Benchmarks page, click the School Network tab .
   
   
4. Click Edit Cut Scores .
5. On the Edit School Network Cut Scores page, use the drop-down lists to change the PR values that define the categories for the school network. The values must be in ascending order from left to right.
   
   
   
   

   To change the number of categories, their names, and/or the minimum proficiency level, see Editing School Network Benchmark Structure.

   
   There can be from 2–5 categories for school network benchmarks (the default number is 4). The values for some categories are automatically calculated based on the scores you choose for the other categories. In the example above (where 4 categories are used), On Watch is automatically calculated as the range of scores between Intervention and At/Above Benchmark. The category that is automatically calculated changes depending on the number of categories used.
   
   The PR values for the categories (along with their default names) are shown here.
