All students enrolled in SIS are automatically included in the Pre-ID for the ACT assessments as described below, unless the student’s enrollment in SIS indicates IDEA Services = “Yes” and Alternate Assessment (DLM-AA) = “Yes” under the Program Indicators tab.  \n• An ACT with Writing record is automatically created when a student is enrolled in SIS as grade 11.  \n• A PreACT Secure record is automatically created when a student is enrolled in SIS as grade 10.  \n• A PreACT 9 Secure record is automatically created when a student is enrolled in SIS as grade 9.  \nGrade 12 Students  \nSome students in grade 12 may also be rostered to take the ACT with Writing, based on the logic described in this [flowchart:](flowchart: www.isbe.net/Documents/Grade_12_Testers_Flow_Chart.pdf.

Grade) 12 students who are required to test must do so only if they are still enrolled in SIS during the testing window. Students who are scheduled to graduate and receive a regular high school diploma before the spring 2026 administration should not test. Rather, the district awarding the diploma may submit a diploma exemption request on the student’s behalf. More details about how to submit a request are posted on the ISBE high school website under “Overview and General Information.”  \nHome, Serving, Service Provider and Testing Region-County-District-Type-School (RCDTS) Codes  \nThe Pre-ID report shows a student’s Home RCDTS code and Serving RCDTS code from their active SIS enrollment. The Testing RCDTS code exists only on the Pre-ID and is initially populated using the student’s Serving RCDTS code or, if different from both the Home and Serving RCDTS code, the Service Provider RCDTS code. Some students have “split” enrollments, meaning multiple Serving RCDTS codes with less than 1.0 for the Percent of Day Attended (PDA) . In these cases, the Serving RCDTS code with the higher/highest PDA is used to initially populate the Testing RCDTS code. If the PDA values are all 0.50 and the Serving RCDTS code is a category 1, 2, 3, 6, or C entity, the Home RCDTS code is used to initially populate the Testing RCDTS code. If the Serving RCDTS code is a category 9 entity, the Home RCDTS code is used to initially populate the Testing RCDTS code, regardless of PDA. In all cases, please coordinate with the student’s serving school or service provider to determine where the student will test, and edit the Testing RCDTS code in the Pre-ID accordingly.  \nOnline Process: Edit Testing RCDTS code or Test Format for ACT with Writing Log into SIS. On the left, select Assessment, then Pre-ID, then ACT/PreACT Secure.  \n1. Search for the student by SID and one of the three: First Name, Last Name, or Date of Birth; select Search.  \n2. Edit Testing RCDTS code (as needed) and select Submit.  \n3. ACT with Writing only: Edit the Test Format from Online to Paper if a student needs a paper format as an accommodation.
