OVERVIEW
 |
| |
|
| |
Without exception, all students enrolled in Vermont schools must be accounted for in the statewide assessment accountability system. Most students participate in the general statewide assessments with no accommodations while a small percentage of students take the general assessment using approved accommodations when necessary. An even smaller percentage of students participate in the assessment accountability system using the Vermont alternate assessment.
In Vermont, use of assessment accommodations and alternate assessments is not limited to special education students. Among those who may qualify for accommodations or an alternate assessment are students who have been referred to a school's educational support team or students who have 504 plans. Parental input and a team decision are major requirements for determining if a student has special assessment needs and is eligible for assessment accommodations or alternate assessments.
