If a student completes a writing assessment that is off-topic, how is the score used in calculating student participation?
A writing assessment that is complete but off-topic submitted by a student at grade 7 or grade 10, cannot be scored and the student is counted as non-participant. Fourth grade students, however, can meet the standard with an off-topic writing assessment. A grade 4 writing assessment that is complete but off-topic is counted as participating when determining the percentage of students tested.
