I'm sorry you are in that situation. I once was too. On top of that, our library didn't have enough books to support the program, making it even harder for students to achieve their goals. Students had to read books of no interest to them, and we all know what happens when you remove student interest from reading.
   
  So, although I don't have any textbooks, etc. I feel I am blessed to be out of the AR trap.

  Joy,

I totally agree with you, but it is expected that my students will make 
their AR goals each month. We used to deduct one percentage point from their 
reading grade if they didn't make their goal, but we are no longer allowed to do 
that.
