The Superintendent may recommend the enrollment of a student(s) from a non-chartered or home school and holds the right of grade placement. A student(s) who has been enrolled in a non-chartered or a home school and who wishes to be admitted to the School District shall be required to take an assessment. The purpose of this assessment is to assist in determining the proper grade placement for the registering student(s). The Superintendent or designee shall be responsible for the selection or development of the assessment.

The student must have taken all State-required assessments at the grade level completed and have met all requirements prior to the grade placement. The Superintendent shall, for the purposes of placement, consider the student’s academic records from the school(s) attended, if any; the assessment results; and any other evaluation information that the Superintendent determines necessary.

The Superintendent shall develop the administrative guidelines necessary to implement this policy.
