The ELL Assessments for English proficiency will be aligned with the New York State English as Second Language (ESL) Standards and the New York State ELA Standards, and the ELL Assessments for Spanish proficiency will be aligned to the New York State Native Language Standards. ELL Assessment results should help teachers identify areas of strengths and weaknesses in a students’ language development relative to the related New York State Standards, provide a guage on a students’ progress on the continuum of language development and help target instruction at the classroom level. Assessment results will be available via a set of comprehensive, user friendly reports that are accessible online anytime/anywhere. These assessments will be part of a comprehensive Periodic Assessment Program that helps gather information on students’ strengths and weaknesses, and measure student learning and progress over time to help inform instruction and improve student outcomes. Specifically this vendor must provide a component consisting of English Language Learners Assessment for grades 3-12. The compelling need for these services was not satisfactorily met through an initial release of a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Periodic Assessments and the submission of competitive sealed proposals.
