teacher’s recommendations or records from previous setting(s). The District may administer and recognize results of tests purchased by the parent or student from TTU or UT. Students in grades 6-8 who are enrolled in the District and who have received prior instruction in previous courses may be placed into the appropriate course or courses based upon information from sources such as prior performance in the subject, teacher recommendation, and scores on locally administered tests and inventories. A campus committee consisting of the principal, counselor, and classroom teachers will make placement decisions. No placement will be made without parent approval. Students may not place out of any courses for which high school credit toward graduation is awarded unless an examination for acceleration is taken. Should a parent challenge placement or request alternative placement(s), the campus may administer and recognize results of a test purchased by the parent or student from TTU or the UT. A score of 70 is considered passing when there is documented evidence of prior instruction. The Advanced, Accelerated, and Innovative Learning Department and the Accountability and Data Quality Department do not make student placements. Based on the student’s age and other factors listed in paragraphs 1-2, a student may be placed in a classroom and observed for six (6) weeks prior to making a final placement decision. Scores earned on examinations taken to establish placement and/or validation will not be recorded on the Academic Achievement Record. However, credit earned will be recorded/awarded. Secondary Grades 9-12 Students entering the District that have been home schooled or are coming from unaccredited schools or schools outside the U.S. and seeking placement/validation of grade level or course work, may be placed in the appropriate course or grade level based on the decisions of the campus committee consisting of the principal, counselor, and classroom teachers. This placement requires parental approval. Evidence of previous classroom work, results of standardize testing, psychologist’s recommendations, or records from previous setting(s) may be considered to determine placement. Should the parents challenge placement, they may request an examination. The campus may administer and recognize results of a test purchased by the parent or student from TTU or UT. If a student is LEP, the SPC must work in collaboration with the campus LPAC to determine appropriate instructional placement/validation. A score of 70 or above must be earned on each examination taken to receive credit when there is documented evidence of prior instruction. The Advanced, Accelerated, and Innovative Learning Department and the Accountability and Data Quality Department do not make student placements. The campus may place students in an appropriate class pending CBE validation results. 12-13 SY Bulletin Number One 22 Revised: 10/9/2012
Scores earned on examinations taken to establish placement and/or validation will not be recorded on the Academic Achievement Record. However, credit earned will be recorded/awarded. A CBE for the second semester (part B) for award of credit for a two-semester course may be used only in Languages other than an English course (foreign languages). In all other courses the student must take a test over each semester (A&B) to earn credit for the course. 2.12.I Examination Approval The Board of Education shall approve exams from TTU or UT for use with the FWISD’s credit for retrieval and placement/validation process. At a later time and based on need and availability, the District may use locally or jointly developed examinations for the purpose of Retrieval or Placement Validation of credit. Acceleration The FWISD in accordance with Chapter 74, Subchapter C Other Provisions, §74.24 TAC, will provide the following administrative procedures for CBE. CBE for acceleration purposes (without prior instruction) shall be offered each semester to students who are enrolled in the FWISD. Exact dates and locations shall be published for each fall and spring semester testing cycle. Acceleration without Prior Instruction Note: ―No prior instruction‖ is defined as no formal instruction in the specific course content and/or grade to be skipped. This shall not preclude the taking of a test for acceleration purposes because some of the content of the course to be credited by examination was covered by an earlier or previous course. Elementary Kindergarten - Kindergarten students may be accelerated by a campus committee consisting of the principal, counselor, and classroom teachers. If the parent requests acceleration for his or her kindergarten child, the committee must convene and consider the parent request. Materials such as classroom work, standardized testing, psychologist’s recommendation or records from a previous kindergarten school setting may be considered for acceleration. No examination is required. Grades 1-5 Students must make 90 or above on each of four examinations or obtain an average of 90 or above on all four exams. (*Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies). Written parent approval and school recommendation must accompany the request for acceleration. Campus academic advisors should review all final acceleration decisions. 12-13 SY Bulletin Number One 23 Revised: 10/9/2012
