How do I get to this page?

There are two ways to get to this page—use whichever method you prefer.

Method 1:

  1. Log in to Renaissance.
  2. On the Home page, select Star Reading, Star Early Literacy, or Star Math; in the drop-down menu, select Manage Goals & Benchmarks.

  3. On the Goals & Benchmarks page, select View or Edit Benchmarks.

Who can do this with default user permissions?

District Level Administrators, District Staff

In any situation where a benchmark is needed (for example, when creating a report), if the user doesn't choose a specific benchmark to use, the default benchmark is used. The default benchmark is used by all schools in a district and is set on a product-by-product basis.

  1. Use one of the methods listed above to open the View Benchmarks page.
  2. Select Edit Default Benchmark.
  3. In the window that opens, select the default benchmark to be used for each product listed (district, school, or state).



    • State benchmarks are only available for Star Reading English and Star Math English.
    • If you change a benchmark, it will be outlined in blue (as shown for Star Early Literacy Spanish in the image above)—this highlight will remain until you save your changes.
    • Changes to a default benchmark will not take effect until the next school day.
  4. Select Save (or Cancel to close the pop-up window without saving your changes).
