[quote=Anonymous]It's just so absurd. There's a fourth grader at my school. She has an IQ of 69 and is intellectually disabled. She is an English language learner, but her level is too high to take the "portfolio" version of the SOL. Her IQ is just a couple of points too high to take the alternative assessment for low-functioning students. She had to sit and take the grade level SOL. And even though this student has made progress in many areas, our school has another failure recorded for each test she took. There have been other alternative tests for special education students in the past. But it seems like each year the state removes them because too many kids start passing them. They're set up to fail. It's bordering on criminal.[/quote]
