27. Special Exit Criteria EOY Review
Step 6: Determine and Document Whether Student Has Met Modified Exit Criteria
At the end of the year, the ARD committee, with key LPAC members, meets to review the assessment results and subjective teacher evaluation required under TAC § (h) to determine whether the student has met the modified exit criteria. The subjective teacher evaluation must reflect the status of the student following the administration of the assessments.
This meeting is to be held at the end of the school year, as required by TAC Section (g). This means that an additional ARD committee meeting is necessary for students whose annual ARD committee meeting is held at a different time.
If the decision is made to exit the student based on the assessment results and subjective teacher evaluation, the ARD committee finalizes and documents the change in placement or program and delineates instructional services including the monitoring period for exited students. Furthermore, as required under TAC § (l)(1)(H) relating to exit from bilingual education or ESL services, the LPAC also documents the exit decision in the student’s permanent record file.

28. Annual Student Progress
TAC § School districts shall report to parents the progress of their child as a result of participating in the program offered to English language learners in English and the home language at least annually.

From: Pilar Moreno-Recio, Director of Bilingual/ESL Education
CC: Dr. Melissa Duarte, Assistant Superintendent of Curriculum and Instruction; Eloy Chapa, Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources; Matt Flood, Chief Technology Officer; Rebecca Robins, Director of Curriculum and Instruction; Araceli de la Cruz, Director of Student Services; Ron Wyatt, Director of Human Resources; Patricia Nesselrode, PEIMS Specialist, Sherry Bell, Assistant PEIMS Specialist and Claudia Orozco, PEIMS Data Clerk.
Subject: PK-K Bilingual/ESL Summer School Attendance and PEIMS Coding Processes
The following are the steps to ensure a smooth process to report attendance and PEIMS coding of Pre-Kinder and Kinder students attending the Bilingual/ESL Summer School:
Designated campus administrator will collect the PK-K bilingual/ESL summer school applications, place them in a binder, and provide to the campus attendance clerks. The binders containing all summer school applications will be provided to the summer school principals.
The campus attendance clerk will enter the students in PEIMS by April 28th.
Once enrolled in summer school, PK-K students will be expected to attend all days of summer school. If absences occur, teachers will contact parents on the day that the absences occur. Summer school principals will review attendance daily to determine if any parents need to be contacted or adjustments in attendance need to be made.
After the first week of attendance to summer school, the district Bilingual/ESL PEIMS Data Clerk will code students (Y) for summer school. No-shows will be removed at the end of summer school.
The district Bilingual/ESL PEIMS Data Clerk will end the summer school coding of students who attended summer school after the district PEIMS roll-over happens the first week in August.
