  • If a student has a special code of AC8 (April Dunn) - Act 833 Student or ACS (April Dunn) - Act 833 EOC Alternate 5% Scale, then the following information will display in STS at position 122 - Met Assessment Requirements for Graduation (Met GEE/EOC) flag of the 020 record. Students must also have an exit code of early graduate. Use the Leave Code Fast Loader to mass enter the leave dates.
  • JCampus has the 5% rule built into the calculation process. Any student having a Special code of ACS (ACT 833 April Dunn) or is a SER student, with an active IEP, whose test type assessment code is LAA2 will be triggered as 5% of the course grade. NOTE that the April Dunn students (ACS) are the old LAA2. The old LAA1 are the LEAP CONNECT. The ACS code will calculate the final grade as 95% District scores and 5% LEAP scores as the LEAP scores are imported.
  • Y if a student has passed all assessments required for graduation.
  • A if a student has passed all assessments required for graduation and one or more of the assessment requirements through alternate means. (Example: A student has an EOC Level of Alternate for Algebra I in the Test Score Editor)
  • Act 833 - Use Alt (instead of E exempt) which means an alternative test was taken for students that failed the EOC but took an alternative test to replace it.
  • E if a student is exempt from all assessment requirements. (Example: A student has an EOC Level of Exempt for Algebra I in the Test Score Editor)
  • The space is left blank if all requirements have not been met.
  • If a student is flagged as LAA 1 in SER, then the following information will display in STS at position 122 - Met Assessment Requirements for Graduation (Met GEE/EOC) flag of the 020 record. Students must also have an exit code of early graduate. Use the Leave Code Fast Loader to mass enter the leave dates.
  • Y if a student has passed all assessments required for graduation.
  • G if a student has passed all assessments required for graduation and has met one or more of the assessment requirements for a diploma with a student growth portfolio. (Example: A student has an EOC Level of Growth for Algebra I in the Test Score Editor)
  • E if a student is exempt from all assessment requirements. (Example: A student has an EOC Level of Exempt for Algebra I in the Test Score Editor)
  • The space is left blank if all requirements have not been met.


LAA1

Leap Connect / formerly LAA1 (students having a current IEP with an assessment code of LAA1)

Take Leap Connect assessment. A student absolutely cannot earn a LEAP Connect diploma without taking LEAP Connect and there is no transfer policy for this.

Students can not have an exemption for LEAP Connect.

If they do not pass, the school has the opportunity to develop a portfolio that also enables them to earn the diploma. The school can then post 'Growth' for the subject areas of the LEAP Connect test in Test Score Editor for the student.

  • 'Near Goal','At Goal','Above Goal','Level 2','Level 3','Level 4'- The student passed the subject area assessment
  • Growth - The student used a growth portfolio

Subject Areas:

ELA

Math


LAA2

ACT 833 / April Dunn (students and those would be marked with the ACS Special Code - formerly LAA2).

Take LEAP 2025 assessment

  • Approaching Basic or higher - The student passed the subject area assessment.
  • Alternate - The student is eligible and met the subject area assessment requirement using alternate means.
  • Exempt - The student was exempt due to out of state or nonpublic enrollment while earning the credit or due to other DOE waivers.

Q & A

Q - We have a special code in place for the students that are identified as April Dunn 5% EOC. Is there a code that can be entered for the students that have an IEP and are also on the alternate EOC 5% scale?

A - The April Dunn and the LEAP Connect are the sped students that meet the eligibility per LDOE bulletins. We have confirmed this with Jennifer Baird. The April Dunn are denoted by the Special Code and the LEAP Connect are denoted by the alternative assessment type on the IEP. The nightly SPED file keeps our IEPs up to date with eSER.

Both, the April Dunn and LEAP Connect students get the 5% in JCampus already.
