Placement Criteria

If a student’s test result is in the middle of the score level, then the teacher places the student in that level. 

If a student’s test result is on the border of the score level, then the teacher does the next closest test level, either up or down. 

Once all student levels are determined, work with your instruction coach to create groups. This involves placing all like level students together and determining optimum group size.
