Harness Lexile Measures to Boost Reading Growth

Once certified, Georgia educators can leverage Lexile Measures to drive student growth and predict reading success. This powerful tool helps educators measure how well a student can read and their level of comprehension.

The Georgia Department of Education partnered with MetaMetrics®  to correlate the Georgia Milestones English Language Arts (ELA) assessments with the Lexile scale. Georgia students now receive a Lexile measure rating on their Georgia Milestones End of Grade or End of Course ELA assessment.
