[Counselors] Question re: testing and special needs students

[OSRHE EPAS PK-12 Counselor Discussion Board]

You hope that when the student tests a second time, he or she improves by at least one point, which if written into IEP, credit is given.

 It doesn’t matter.  You have to do either a OAAP portfolio or an EOI regular test with modifications.  The portfolio has to be videotaped and objectives documented to the best capabilities of the students with multiple tries for the same objective.  That is why a portfolio is done.  You would not want to do a project or a regular EOI with modifications if the student cannot handle a regular test.  It is unfortunate but these are the rules that the state sets.

 How are you handling the state testing with special needs students who may struggle with a portfolio? 
   
 If a student cannot do a portfolio for algebra I or history what are you all doing for them regarding testing?  
   
 Thank you!
