Accelerated Reader is what our pen pals have in St. Augustine- I think it is a good idea to have a "margin of error" (I believe that is what it is called) to help students to choose appropriate books. We have Reading Counts, and through the FAIR assessment (a Florida assessment), I know my students' lexile levels. Several have a level of around 1000.
