Student Instruction for the SRA

 MONISHA'S RESULTS REVIEWED
       Monisha takes the HSPA in the spring of her 11th grade year. She did not pass two parts (clusters) of the Math section.

MONISHA'S NEXT STEP: INSTRUCTION
       1. In June, the student (in this case, Monisha) needs to arrange with the school to take the targeted SRA instruction in the summer. The instruction is 'targeted' to the specific content area which showed only partial proficiency.
       2. Monisha must attend a special instructional program in order to learn the areas of Math that she has been found to be only partially proficient.

MONISHA'S NEXT STEP: RE-TAKE THE HSPA
      3. She must take the Fall Math HSPA. SHE HAS TO TAKE THE ENTIRE TEST. She does not need to re-take the LAL, since she was foundm to be proficient in language arts literacy.

SPECIAL NOTE: Don't panic if Monisha fails the part of the Fall Math HSPA she had previously passed - that's OK!!! Once she has passed, she has passed. So if she passes on the first exam, and fails this part (these clusters) on the second exam, she has still passed.
      
THE SCHOOL'S STEPS
       It is up to the school to arrange the days and the times of the instruction. So, it could be during a week day, or it could be at night, or it could be on a Saturday.
       The school personnel who are involved in the instruction are the content teachers.
       This means, in Monisha's case, she will have to attend a special instructional program designed by a Math teacher, and taught by a Math teacher.
