Background:
|
|
The revisions made to Administrative Policy 7.38, Balanced Assessment Systems, primarily clarify the roles and responsibilties within the Balanced Assessment System. Key changes include the inclusion of additional supports and accommodations for English learners and students with disabilities. These revisions aim to enhance the policy's clarity, inclusivity, and effectiveness in guiding assessment practices. The creation of Administrative Procedure 7.38, Balanced Assessment Systems, outlines key aspects such as test administration, the district assessment calendar, roles of school assessment coordinators, assessment strategies for specific student populations, communication of assessment results to parents, and the process for parent opt-outs. Approving this new procedure will ensure that the Balanced Assessment Policy is clearly and consistently applied, enhancing assessment practices throughout the district. |
