[CALIBK12] High School Reading Programs

[Kathryn Matlock]

I am a teacher librarian at two alternative high schools in Rialto USD (San Bernardino County).  We are a K-12 Accelerated Reader district to the exclusion of all other uses for the library.  During a recent WASC evaluation one of the High Schools was "dinged" for using AR which is not state adopted or standards based.  The teachers have ask that I find what other reading programs are available for HS kids at all reading levels.  Please let me know if you are using, or know of, something, other than AR, that has been successful with HS kids, is state adopted and standards based.  Many thanks!
