Students are grouped on the Assessment Correction (Details) Report by a combination of their Home School and Testing School. For most students, their Home School is the same as their Testing School. Students in grade 11 and some in grade 12 are included in the Assessment Correction Report if they had a SIS enrollment on the first day of SAT testing--April 13, 2021--and are not included on the DLM-AA Assessment Correction and Scores Report instead. 2) What should I review on the SAT Assessment Correction Report? • Ensure students are included on the appropriate Assessment Correction Report. If a student appears on SAT Assessment Correction but should be on DLM-AA Assessment Correction and Scores, verify the student’s IDEA Services (IEP) indicator in the “Program Indicators” tab in SIS enrollment is “Yes” and Alternate Assessment (DLM-AA) Indicator is “Yes.” If the enrollment record has already been exited for SY21, please contact the Assessment Department for further guidance by calling 866-317-6034 or writing to [assessment@isbe.net](assessment@isbe.net). • Correct indicators as needed, including the "First Year in U.S. School" indicator. • Enter RNVTA codes, as applicable. Rely on your local records. Notes about RNVTAs: o SIS Entry and Exit dates have been included in the Assessment Correction Report to assist with this review. o Any RNVTA entered for a student who receives a score will be removed automatically after scores are posted. o SIS has already applied RNVTA code 50 to all grade 12 records, as current grade 12 students are exempt from testing. Ifa grade 12 student having RNVTA code 50 tested, it will be removed automatically when score data arrive and are matched to the record. o After the corrections window closes, RNVTA code 19 will be applied to all records having no score and no RNVTA code. o Suppression code 01 (suppresses both English language arts and mathematics data) and RNVTA code 23 will be applied to all English Leaner records on which the “First Year in U.S. School” indicator is “Yes” as long as scores are present.

FAQs

Which students are included in the SAT Assessment Correction Report for spring 2021?

Students are grouped by Home School and Testing School. Grade 11 students and some grade 12 students are included if they had SIS enrollment on April 13, 2021, and are not included on the DLM-AA Assessment Correction and Scores Report instead.

What should districts review and update on the SAT Assessment Correction Report?

Districts should confirm students appear on the correct report, verify IDEA Services and DLM-AA indicators when applicable, correct required indicators (including “First Year in U.S. School”), and enter applicable RNVTA codes using local records.

How do RNVTA codes and suppression codes affect score matching and records?

Any RNVTA entered for a student who receives a score is removed automatically after scores are posted. After the corrections window closes, RNVTA code 19 is applied to records with no score and no RNVTA code. Suppression code 01 and RNVTA code 23 apply to English Learner records with “First Year in U.S. School” as long as scores are present; otherwise the school must enter the applicable RNVTA.
