As your students begin the Reading Level Assessment (RLA), you can check their testing status. Administrators can check the student status of any student in their school or district. Educators can only check the status of students who are assigned to them.
To check a student's Reading Level Assessment status
- Log in to the Literacy portal. If this is your first time logging in, choose Imagine Language & Literacy.
- Click the Growth widget or click Growth in the Dashboard drop-down menu.
- Click Reading Level Assessment in the navigation bar. Click the Grade Level, or Class that you want to review test results for. Choose the Testing Period that you want to review results for (for example, click the Beginning-of-Year testing period).
-
Select the class that you want to view the test statuses for.
If a student has successfully completed the Reading Level Assessment, you'll see a Lexile score listed for that testing period. You'll also see the start and completion date for that testing period, as well as the amount of time the student took to complete the Reading Level Assessment. If a student has not completed the Reading Level Assessment, check the Reading Level Assessment status table to see the testing status of each of your students.
