Oral reading fluency was investigated as a predictor of standard scores on the Woodcock-Johnson Tests of Achievement III Broad Reading Cluster (BRC). Participants included first- through third-grade students (n = 1301) from elementary schools in and around Houston, Texas. Median words correct per minute scores from three oral reading passages were analyzed as predictors of BRC achievement based on national and local norms using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. ROC analysis provided an area under the curve for all three grades exceeding 0.88. Higher percentile ranks and cut scores across each grade based on local norms indicate that educators may consider the use of ROC analysis to generate and use screening parameters targeted to their student population's specific resources and needs.
