Ditto for the STAR test. At the end of kindergarten DS was reading 4th grade books and STAR tested at 4.1. He read 3rd-5th grade books all summer. At the beginning of 1st grade he STAR tested 3.1, which are clearly way too easy for him.

The school librarian hates the STAR test and A.R., and feels they're completely inaccurate of a child's actual ability.
