South Dakota State Test of Educational Progress explained

The South Dakota State Test of Educational Progress (DSTEP) is a standards-based test designed to meet NCLB requirements.[1] Grades 3-8 and 11 are tested.[2]

The DSTEP reports out Lexile measures for each student.[3] A Lexile measure can be used to match readers with targeted text and monitor growth in reading ability.
