Section 11518.25 - Pupils with Disabilities
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Article, all provisions of Article 2 shall apply to pupils with disabilities.
(b) When administering an initial or summative assessment to a pupil with a disability, the LEA shall provide the designated supports and the accommodations in accordance with the pupil's IEP or Section 504 Plan.
(c) When a pupil's IEP or Section 504 Plan specifies that the pupil has a disability that precludes assessment such that there are no appropriate accommodations for assessment in one or more of the listening, speaking, reading, and writing domains, the pupil shall be assessed in the remaining domains in which it is possible to assess the pupil.
(1) A pupil may be assigned an overall score only if assessed in both oral and written language. To be considered assessed in oral language, the student must have been assessed in either listening or speaking. To be considered assessed in written language, the student must have been assessed in either reading or writing.
(d) Once the Alternate ELPAC referenced in section 11518.30(b), (c), and (d) is operative, if the pupil's IEP team determines that the pupil has a significant cognitive disability and is eligible for the Alternate ELPAC, section 11518.25(c) will not apply.
