English Learner FAQs
Q. What is mass reclassification?
A. Mass reclassification is the process by which a school accesses all students eligible for reclassification in one screen and then clicks the ‘Reclassify’ button once to process all students. This saves time by reclassifying all eligible students at once instead of searching and reclassifying one student at a time. This function is only available to users with Principal or Categorical Program Coordinator user role. The link is found under Admin > Mass Reclassify.
Q. What letters and labels can schools print?
A. Schools can print reclassification letters for the students they reclassify. If a student reclassified at one school and moved to another school, only the sending school will be able to print the reclassification letter for that student.
For reclassification labels, only the student’s current school will be able to print the reclassification labels. If a student reclassified at one school and moved to another school, only the receiving school will be able to print the reclassification label for that student.
Q. What report must be provided to parents for continuing English Learners at the start of the school year?
A. Schools must provide parents with the Annual English Learner Letter for continuing English Learners no later than 30 calendar days after the beginning of the school year.
Q. What report can I use to view all schedules for English Learners?
A. Schools may print the English Learner Student Schedule Summary report which lists all students’ schedules.
Q: Why does the RFEP Monitoring Roster display a blank Grade Level parameter?
A. This means that there is no currently enrolled student at your school who has met the criteria for this report, which is to display all students at this location who have reclassified in the last 5 years.
Q. Why are there different DIBELS results displaying on the Potential Reclassification Roster and EL Monitoring Roster?
A. The Potential Reclassification Roster only displays the DIBELS MOY (Middle of Year) and EOY (End of Year) results, since only these results can be used for reclassification. If the most recent DIBELS assessment for a student is DIBELS BOY (Beginning of Year), it will not display on this roster since it cannot be used for reclassification.
The EL Monitoring Roster displays the most recent DIBELS, which could be BOY, MOY or EOY. This roster displays the most recent assessments, regardless of eligibility for reclassification.
Q. Where can I get a list of LTELs and Potential LTELs?
A. The English Learner Monitoring Roster has an LTEL column that displays Y/N (Yes/No) to identify if a student is considered LTEL. In addition to these values, a ‘P’ also displays to identify a student who is considered a Potential LTEL.
Q. How do I know who is at risk for becoming a Long-Term English Learner?
A. Potential Long-Term English Learner (PLTEL) students are students enrolled in grades 3-12 who have been identified as EL's for 4-5.9 years.
LTEL students are students enrolled in grades 6-12 who have been identified as EL's for 6 or more years.
Q. When is an English Learner considered as a Long-Term English Learner (LTEL)?
A. A Long-Term English Learner (LTEL) student is any student enrolled in grades 6-12 who has been identified as EL's for 6 or more years.
Q. Why are there different CELDT results displaying on the Potential Reclassification Roster and EL Monitoring Roster?
A. The Potential Reclassification Roster only displays the Annual CELDT results, since only the Annual result can be used for reclassification. If the most recent CELDT for a student is an Initial CELDT, it will not display on this roster since it cannot be used for reclassification.
The EL Monitoring Roster displays the most recent CELDT, which could be an Initial or Annual.
Q. Why are the CELDT results missing for Kindergarten students on the Potential Reclassification Roster, but are displayed on the EL Monitoring Roster?
A. The rosters will display ELPAC test results if available. If there are no ELPAC test results, we will display CELDT test results.
