💬 Advice and answers

How can I prepare my students for the end-of-year Boost Reading Benchmark Assessment?
The first time students log into Boost Reading on or after May 1, they will encounter the Boost Reading Benchmark Assessment. Help students prepare by ensuring access to headphones and a quiet place to work and read aloud during their assessment.
Please note that if your school has mCLASS®, your students will not encounter the Boost Reading Benchmark Assessment.
