Accommodations are defined as adjustments to the presentation of the assessment questions, methods of recording examinee responses to the questions, scheduling for the administration of the assessment, settings for the administration of the assessment or use of assistive devices to facilitate the student's participation in the assessment. Statewide assessment accommodations may be used only if they do not alter the underlying content that is being measured by the assessment or negatively affect the assessment's reliability or validity. Allowable statewide assessment accommodations are based on current instructional accommodations.

District personnel are required to implement the approved accommodations in a manner that ensures the test responses are the independent work of the student. Personnel are prohibited from assisting a student in determining how the student will respond or directing or leading the student to a particular response. In no case shall the accommodations authorized herein be interpreted or construed as an authorization to provide a student with assistance in determining the answer to any test item.

The IEP committee has determined that the following accommodations, which are listed on your child's IEP, will not be permitted as an accommodation in statewide assessment.

Do you consent for the accommodation(s) listed above to be provided in instruction but which are not allowable in statewide assessment?

Yes, I give my written consent, and in doing so, my signature means that I fully understand the implication of the accommodation.

No, I do not give my consent.
