Using the Tested/Not Tested Counts Report
This training is designed to increase awareness of how to use the Level 1 Tested/Not Tested Counts Report.

Reviewing this report is essential for ensuring that all students who tested have been accounted for. If students are missing from this report, this means that the state has no test score for the student at your district. This training will explain the process and what to do if a student is missing or incorrectly categorized.
