SUBJECT:
Reading Inventory (formerly SRI) Update
Principals are asked to pass this information on to their teachers who will be using Reading Inventory.
We are very happy to announce that Teaching & Learning has now completed the purchase process for SRI, and it will be available to teachers this week. SRI is no longer run by Scholastic, and is now just Reading Inventory, or RI. It is a product of Houghton-Mifflin-Harcourt.
To access the SAM server to view student scores and run reports, go to this link: https://h100005970.education.scholastic.com/
As schools begin to use RI, Information Systems would like you to remember the following information:
For Chromebooks, IS has pushed the link https://h100005970.education.scholastic.com/ to the Chromebooks. It will show as RI. Schools that want to use RI on non-Chrome devices will need to see if their tech can put the link above on whatever device will be used. They’ll need to be aware to use that exact link and not the redirect.
If you find any missing courses, cannot log in, or have other problems, please contact Kira Jensen at kira.jensen@jordandistrict.org. As so many students change enrollments at the beginning of the year, Info Systems will upload another round of rosters at the beginning of each quarter.
Students and rosters can be managed manually as well. For more information on how to manage class rosters, add students, and view reports in RI, please use the video tutorials:
