PLAN FOR TESTING: Students in grades 1 st -2 nd and 11 th -12 th who may need potentially exit. They will need the norm-reference test (Terra Nova) as part of the criteria for exit ELL status.

22 Special Exit Criteria EOY Review Step 6: Determine and Document Whether Student Has Met Modified Exit Criteria At the end of the year, the ARD committee, with key LPAC members, meets to review the assessment results and subjective teacher evaluation required under TAC (h) to determine whether the student has met the modified exit criteria. o The subjective teacher evaluation must reflect the status of the student following the administration of the assessments. This meeting is to be held at the end of the school year, as required by TAC Section (g). This means that an additional ARD committee meeting is necessary for students whose annual ARD committee meeting is held at a different time. If the decision is made to exit the student based on the assessment results and subjective teacher evaluation, the ARD committee finalizes and documents the change in placement or program and delineates instructional services including the monitoring period for exited students. Furthermore, as required under TAC (l)(1)(H) relating to exit from bilingual education or ESL services, the LPAC also documents the exit decision in the student s permanent record file.
