To accurately collect data used in the ELL Screener Extract, certain tests need to be added to your Infinite Campus system. The ELL Screener Extract reports students who have:
- At any time had an active enrollment in the selected calendar AND
- Have ELL Screener Information populated in the Student Assessment tool within the start and end dates entered on the extract editor.
The following information provides instructions for creating the tests in the Assessment Center with the correct information selected to report the data on the ELL Screener Extract.
