[LM_NET] Transitioning From AR/SRC

[Robin Boltz <boltz@EMAIL.UNC.EDU>]

Hello Collective Brain--

I'm new at a middle school that has been using Scholastic Reading 
Counts for several years. The school improvement team is getting ready 
to take a look at whether or not it is actually cost effective. I'm not 
a fan of the program and would love to see it die of benign neglect. I 
know that the first complaint that will come up is that teachers who 
use if for grades will have to find another way to grade students for 
that part of their language arts credit.

Has anybody out there either transitioned from a reading program and 
gone through this or have dynamite suggestions that I can offer 
teachers for this purpose?

Thanks,

Robin
