In order to accurately collect data used in the ELL Screener Extract, certain tests need to be added in Campus in a specific manner. The ELL Screener Extract reports students who have at any time had an active enrollment in the selected calendar AND who have ELL Screener Information populated in the Student Assessment tab within the start and end dates entered on the extract editor.
