Chapter 1: Accountability in New York State LEP students who reached proficiency in English on the New York State English as a Second Language Achievement Test (NYSESLAT) in at least one of the previous two school years are included in the current year’s LEP group for performance calculations if the LEP group includes 30 or more current LEP students. Economically disadvantaged students are those reported with a Program Service Code that indicates that they are “Poverty-from low-income family.” Participation Criterion Participation Criterion for ELA and Mathematics: In English language arts (ELA) and mathematics, schools and districts must have valid scores for at least 95 percent of students in all accountability groups with 40 or more students enrolled during the test administration period (elementary/middle level) or 40 or more 12 th graders (secondary level) to fulfill the participation criterion. Participation rates at the elementary/middle level are calculated for students in grades 3 through 8 combined per the school’s/district’s configuration. (For instance, a middle school that has only grades 6 through 8 will have the participation rate calculated for their grades 6 through 8 combined.) Participation Criterion for Science: For schools/districts to meet the participation criterion for making AYP in science, they must have valid scores for at least 80 percent of students in the All Students group, as long as it has 40 or more students enrolled during the test administration period. For each accountability group to meet the participation criterion for qualifying for safe harbor for the group, schools and districts must have valid scores for at least 80 percent of students in the group, as long as it has 40 or more students enrolled during the test administration period. Participation rates are calculated for students in grades 4 and 8 combined. Participation Rate Calculations: Participation rates at the elementary/middle level are determined using the following equation: Participation Rate = 100 × (Count of Participation-Rate Students with Valid Test Scores ÷ Count of Participation-Rate Students) At the elementary/middle level, participation-rate students are those who were enrolled for the entire test administration period, even if they were not continuously enrolled in the school/district from BEDS day until the test administration period. Students who enter or leave a school/district during the test administration period are not considered as participation-rate students unless the school/district provides valid scores for the students. At the secondary level, participation-rate students are 12 th graders. Twelfth graders are students reported in the SIRS as enrolled in grade 12 between July 1 and June 30 of the academic reporting year (e.g., between July 1, 2010 and June 30, 2011 for the 2010–11 academic reporting year), or as graduated with a high school diploma between July 1 and June 30 of the academic reporting year and with a last recorded grade of grade 12. 12 Student Information Repository System Manual for 2010–11 Version 6.2

While the course grade will satisfy the graduation requirement, it will NOT satisfy the accountability testing requirement. These students must have an assessment score on an approved examination to be counted as participating in testing for that subject. NYSESLAT: At the elementary/middle level, if a district chooses to give the NYSTP ELA assessment to a LEP student who is eligible to take the NYSESLAT in lieu of the NYSTP (see rules in Chapter 4: Testing Rules), NYSED will count the student’s NYSTP ELA as the accountability assessment when participation rates are calculated. Medically Excused: At the elementary/middle-level, students who are incapacitated by illness or injury during the entire test administration and make-up periods and have on file documentation from a medical practitioner that they were too incapacitated to be tested at the school, at home, or in a medical setting are considered medically excused from testing and are not included in the participation rate calculation. Students taking the New York State Alternate Assessment (NYSAA) for students with disabilities are not considered medically excused from testing because of their disability. Under normal circumstances, these students must take the NYSAA. However, they are eligible to be medically excused from testing on the NYSAA if they fit the definition above. Secondary-level students may not be medically excused from the participation 13 Student Information Repository System Manual for 2010–11 Version 6.2
