[LM_NET] Target> Accommodations for reading standardized state testing

[Carol A Demasi <Carol_Demasi@CCPSNET.NET>]

I am curious to find out information about accommodations given to special 
education students on reading standardized tests.  We have always been able to read 
the test to our students with disabilities if their reading level was below the 
tested level.  We just found out that NO students will be able to have the test 
read orally.  We anticipate a huge drop in our scores.  Just wondering if anyone 
knows what is going on in other areas of the country.
