Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums Identification, Testing & Assessment Time Accommodations for Screener Test Denied?

This is the reply I got back "Yes, this assessment does not allow extended time as an accommodation. I apologize for not thinking to specify that to you! DS did receive the accommodations that this assessment allows, but the fifteen minute time limit was to be followed. ". She went on to *imply* that he did well and passed but she did not say it officially. And that's fine but - wow - that really sounds fishy to me! And that locks a lot of 2e kiddos out of the program, honestly. He did have a scribe but he said it was mostly computattion so that wasn't much of a help. aeh - it sounds like it was the WRAT test - does this sound right to you? Also, it looks like the next test in the screening is the SCAT test ... Is he permitted extra time for that or no? It's hard when the school doesn't give this info up front - they are so secretive !
