Dear Parent or Guardian:
Your student participated in the ILEARN
assessments for his or her grade level earlier this spring. Since ILEARN is a
new test, the final results with proficiency levels and scale scores will not
be available for schools until August 15th.
In
accordance with Indiana Code 20-32-5.1-12(d), parents and schools have an
opportunity to request a rescore for any open-ended item(s) to which students
responded on the ILEARN assessment.
Important
Information about the ILEARN Rescore Request Process:
= The ILEARN Rescore Request window will be open in mid-July (July 15 – 31). Requests submitted outside of this window will not be processed.
= Parents or guardians who wish to view students’ response images and scoring rubrics must contact the Wa-Nee Administration Office. There will not be a separate online portal for parents to access this information.
= Together
with a Wa-Nee administrator, you will be able to view an image of your student’s response to each open-ended item, sample student responses for each score point, and the scoring rubric to help decide whether to request a rescore for that item.
= The administrator
will submit any rescore request(s) on your behalf in the online platform.
= A
rescore could result in an increased or
decreased score.
=
Once
a rescore request is submitted, the request and/or score change cannot be
reversed.
=
A
rescore request can only be requested one time for an item. Multiple requests
to rescore the same item for a student is not permissible.
=
All
items, responses, and scoring rubrics are secure materials and must not be
discussed, shared, distributed, or duplicated.
=
Final
results released on August 15 will reflect any properly submitted requested
rescores.
