Students with Special Needs - Time Print E-mail

Since NSE regularly monitors the time that students take to complete each section of the exam (40 minutes maximum on each test), it is imperative that NSE have a record of students who require extra time to complete the examination.

 

NSE honors requests from students for extended time on the National Spanish Examinations provided that (1) the student has documentation on file with the school that supports the need for extended time and (2) the student regularly is given extra time on classroom tests.   NSE has the right to request such documentation at any time, and schools must provided this information, if requested.  Failure to provide documentation upon request will result in disqualification of the student's score.

 

The teachers of students who require extra time should e-mail Brandon Christy, Administrative Assistant for Test Administration, using the following procedure:

 

  1. The subject line of the email should state teacher's AATSP number and the words "extended time".  [example:  103432 extended time]
  2. Include in the text of the e-mail
    (A)  teacher's name and AATSP number
    (B)  name of student(s) and level of student(s)
              example:
                        Teacher:  Kevin Cessna - AATSP#103432
                        Students requiring extra time:
                             Monica Jones - Level 1
                             John Smith - Level 3
                             Alex Thompson - Level 3
