Assessing Students with Disabilities

Students with disabilities are not exempt from testing including standardized tests.  This is good because we want our students to be held to the highest of standards as well and be able to compete with their non disabled peers.  Join us in a discussion about assessment and accountability, particularly as it relates to students with disabilities, ·appropriate and inappropriate use of standardized tests, and ways to ensure that all children are held to high expectations in these systems.  We are joined by our frequent contributors Dr. Eric Rossen, Director of Professional Development and Standards at the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP), and Dr. Kelly Vaillancourt Strobach, Director of Government Relations also from NASP
