If she had taken the 6+ version, you might be able to reasonably use that norms document for a statement about secondary students, but since she took the 2-5 version, higher-level items (of the kind an advanced 7th grader might complete successfully) were not present on the test. The most you can say is that, on this instrument, she performed at a level comparable to that of the 97+ percentile of grade five students. Keep in mind, though, that SSA in reading really means SSA in writing, often. If you do not have data on her skills in written expression (especially for longer, more complex formal writing tasks), the school may be reluctant to entertain the idea (and, in fact, it may not be in her best interest). The CBA may be a good source of some additional data in this area.
