The students need substantial academic support to be prepared for the next grade level or course. (ex: ELA Grade 6 140 – 474) Developing Learners demonstrate partial proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning. The students need additional academic support to ensure success in the next grade level or course. (ex: ELA Grade 6 475-524) Proficient Learners demonstrateproficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning.

Promotion and RetentionGrades 3, 5, & 8 - Reading and 5 & 8 - Math • Student performance on the reading portion of the ELA test will be used to provide a grade level reading determination of Below Grade Level or On/Above Grade Levelbased on the student’s Lexile score (which is a measure of reading ability). • Students who achieve the Beginning Learnerlevel in mathematics should receive remediation and be provided the opportunity to retest. These students will need substantial academic support. For the 2014-15 tests, there are no retest opportunities, however these retest parameters will be in effect for the Milestones tests given this spring.
