[Counselors] Transcript EOI scores

Mon Apr 20 08:17:46 CDT 2015

This just says that EOI scores have to be reflected on the transcript. It doesn't say anything about whether a course letter grade has to be given if a child wants to be granted passing credit for a failed course because they passed the EOI.

Is it up to each district how to handle that?  It concerns me that in Tulsa, we are giving "P" for "Pass" if a parent signs a letter requesting that their child be given passing credit for a failed class based on a passing EOI score, but other schools are replacing the F with  a "D" for a "Proficient" EOI score and "C" for "Advanced" EOI.

I set up an "Alternate Test" in my student information system.  We use MAS Inc. and it is set up under Setup Information.  If you don't use that student information system, it could be set up in the same place EOI scores are set up.  I put in score, proficiency level and the name of the test used to attain proficiency.  I also list my EOI students who have demonstrated mastery in this section, listing name of EOI, test score and in proficiency level add Exempt (ex:  English III, 61, Advanced/PSAT Exempt)

We don't transcribe alternate assessments. We keep the information in their permanent record/folder.

We list it under graduation notes for our own use and information.  Upon graduation when the statement regarding meeting requirements is added we then delete the note.

Subject: RE: Transcripting EOI scores

The law states highest attained EOIs scores must go on the transcript. I know several districts will place "exempt" when appropriate and * or "met alt" after the proficiency rate to indicate that the student has shown proficiency somehow/someway. It is a local decision on that or how they indicate proficiency. I have attached the document used last Oct.
