Accelerated Reader

Mililani Middle uses the Accelerated Reader program. AR determines about 10-20% of a student's Language Arts grade. If a student borrows an "AR Book" from the library, then reads it, he/she can take an "AR Test", which asks questions about events and characters in the book (Students may also read an AR book if they already own one). Depending on how well they score on a test, a student receives "AR Points", and students can receive prizes if he/she has a certain amount of AR points, such as a goodie bag or free ice cream.
