St. Mary Cathedral School utilizes the Scholastic Reading Counts program to enhance the reading and comprehension skills of our students. The program encourages a love of reading through leveled independent reading practice.

1. A placement quiz is administered to each student to determine their Reading Counts reading level (Lexile).
2. Each Reading Counts book is assigned a Lexile so your child can choose a book at their appropriate reading level. Below are links to Reading Counts Lexile lists. Not all books are in the school library and may be found at the Public Library.
3. After reading the book, your child takes a quiz over the book in the classroom or computer lab. Points can be earned for each book read and go toward the classroom goal.
4. Quiz results are provided to your child’s teacher and then sent home for your review.
List of selected books and quizzes:
Lexile 20 to 300
Lexile 300 to 500
Lexile 500 to 800
