Guidance and resources for schools, staff, and families including manuals pertaining to tests administration. Guidelines, procedures, and accommodations for special needs populations and students with disabilities are outlined, as well.
Presented by the New York City Department of Education, these resources have just been released. Families and caregivers are well served by accessing this information. All materials should be linguistically appropriate to primary and native language spoken at home.
Mindful of diversity, caregivers will be more empowered as advocates for their children at school. Ensure distribution and, if necessary[but highly advisable], provide information sessions for parents to become more knowledgeable of their rights, and fully understand this important process of administering tests to their children.
