- 10/3/2006: 2006-07 NYSAA Test Blueprints
Alternate Grade Level Indicators will be used in 2006-07 to assess student performance on required components of the Core Curricula for English language arts, mathematics, science and social studies, as charted on the Blueprints. It is recommended that instructional programs in fall 2006 address these areas of learning for NYSAA-eligible students. Curriculum content, materials and texts may be simplified to less complex forms, but less complex forms must be age appropriate and remain aligned to the same main ideas being addressed by the students’ same-aged peers at that grade level.

- 8/31/2006: Revised Guidelines for Participation of Students with Disabilities in State Assessments for 2006-07 - New York State has been notified by the USDOE that the guidelines in the November 2005 memorandum entitled Interim Supplemental Guidelines for Participation of Students with Disabilities in State Assessments are not consistent with the requirements of the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act. Therefore, to ensure that all students with disabilities are included in the State assessment program and are counted for Title I participation and performance in accordance with federal requirements, school districts must test students with disabilities as directed in this memo, beginning with the 2006-07 school year. http://www.p12.nysed.gov/assessment/nysaa/archive/ungraded.html
- 8/23/06: Important Changes in NYSAA Administration for 2006-07 - A new field memo is being issued, describing Important Changes Regarding Administration of the New York State Alternate Assessment (NYSAA) for 2006-07. To implement federal requirements regarding alternate assessment of students with severe cognitive disabilities, schools must modify their administration of NYSAA for 2006-07 as described in the field memo.
