Eliza's score gets to median at 5th grade. It's hard to find things she likes to read and will challenge her. Last year she read Beverly Cleary and took Accelerated Reader quizzes all year. She did great with it. Her teachers seem to very much want to keep her at a late first or beginning 2nd level so she can have "peers" in her reading group. We just don't know what's reasonable with these scores.
