Spring 2020 IAR, SAT, PSAT 10, PSAT 8/9, and DLM-AA Pre-ID Assessment Pre-ID rostering is automatically assigned based on each student’s grade level and SIS assessment history. NEW for SY 2020: Alternate Assessment (DLM-AA) students are now identified on the SIS Enrollment Program Indicators tab. Review each assessment roster using the SIS Assessment Pre-ID reports (Detail) . Ifa student incorrectly appears on a SIS Assessment Pre-ID report, update the student’s Alternate Assessment indicator on the SIS Program Indicators tab. To change the student’s Alternate Assessment indicator on the SIS Program Indicators tab: 1. Log into SIS. 2. Search the SID. 3. Navigate to the Program Indicator tab and select Edit. 4. Under IDEA Services, update Alternate Assessment (DLM-AA) as appropriate. 5. Select Submit. Note: The student should immediately appear on the respective Assessment Pre-ID report. To update the Testing School for IAR Pre-ID, DLM-AA Pre-ID, or SAT, PSAT 10, and PSAT 8/9 Pre-ID, log into SIS, select the appropriate Assessment from the Pre-ID menu and follow the prompts. To request the Pre-ID file, log into SIS, select Batch Files, select the desired assessment, and then select Request File. Once processed, the requested file appears on the Upload/Download page under Batch Files. The Pre-ID Template and Tips and Steps can be found at [https://www.isbe.net/Pages/Excel-Templates-for-student-data-input-into-SIS.aspx](https://www.isbe.net/Pages/Excel-Templates-for-student-data-input-into-SIS.aspx). IAR Pre-ID (Step 1 and Step 2) For grades 3-8, both an ELA/L and a mathematics grade-level test record are created in the IAR Pre-ID automatically when the student is enrolled in SIS, unless the student is identified on the SIS enrollment Program Indicators tab as IDEA Services= “Yes”and Alternate Assessment: DLM-AA = “Yes.” Step 1: Identify Testing Window Testing window information in IAR Pre-ID as of 4:00 p.m. February 14, 2020, will be provided to Pearson for loading into its PearsonAccessnext (PAN) system. If districts do not enter a testing window start and end date by February 14, SIS will default these values to the earliest start date (March 11, 2020) and the latest end date (April 24, 2020). Districts should adjust the testing window start and end dates in SIS, if applicable, even after February 14, 2020, to ensure accurate enrollments are captured for assessment corrections after testing. Step 2: Editing Testing RCDTS 1. Log into SIS, select Assessment Pre-ID, and select the IAR. 2. Search for the student by his/her SID and one of the three: first name, last name, or DOB. 3. Edit Testing RCDTS only if needed, and select Update. SIS Pre-ID Transmission to PAN Data from the IAR Pre-ID will be provided to the PearsonAccessnext (PAN) system to: • Load student data into the PAN system, based on the Testing RCDTS in the SIS Pre-ID file. • All demographic and enrollment updates will be driven through SIS demographics and enrollment. • SIS will send all change updates made on demographics, enrollment, or Testing RCDTS to PAN on the following dates: o January 6, 2020 (Initial Pre-ID Transmission to PAN) o January 10, 2020 o January 17, 2020 o January 24, 2020 o January 31, 2020 o February 7, 2020 o February 21, 2020 o March 6, 2020 o March 27, 2020 (FINAL IAR Pre-ID file from SIS to PAN) Note: Districts will have the ability to push Pre-ID updates directly from SIS to PAN by the end of January.
