Accelerated Reader Home Connect!
Home Connect is an Internet site where parents and students can access AR progress. (Students are not allowed to test at home, only at school.)
Click here to access HOME CONNECT
In order to log in to the site you will need to have your student's AR username and password. Once inside, check out the option for parents to receive an email each time their child takes an AR. Look for "email setup" at the right-hand upper corner.
Look to see if YOUR book has AR!

Forest Avenue has a long history of using Renaissance products to motivate student reading. We have been honored numerous times because our students and teachers worked extremely hard on their reading skills with the help of Accelerated Reader. Keep up the good work, FAAM'ly!
