June/Summer
End of Year
A June End of Year SRA applies
to those students who are expected to graduate in June of the current
school year but who’s SRA would not be submitted to the county
office of education by the March 31 deadline.
A Summer End of Year SRA applies
to those students who anticipate a summer graduation but have yet
to meet the statewide testing requirement either through the HSPA
or the SRA.
The following students automatically
qualify for a June/Summer End of Year SRA:
• seniors who transfer in from out-of-state
or nonpublic schools after the October HSPA administration;
• seniors who were seriously ill or
disabled during prior assessment administrations; and
• special education students who were
previously exempt from taking or exempt from passing the HSPA and
who are now declassified in their senior year.
Other students may qualify
for a June/Summer End of Year SRA with the written permission of
the county superintendent if they are:
• seniors who went off roll from a
New Jersey public high school prior to the SRA submission deadline
and were subsequently readmitted after the SRA submission deadline;
• seniors who were ill or disabled
for an extended time prior to the SRA submission deadline; and
• seniors who would not be certified
by the district prior to the SRA submission deadline due to extenuating
circumstances.
CONDITIONS
AND METHOD OF APPROVAL
Prior
approval for submission of June/Summer End of Year SRAs must be obtained from the office of the county superintendent.
Unexcused absences or a student's
failure to cooperate with the SRA process in a timely manner are
not valid reasons for an end of year SRA.
PROCESS
Districts are responsible
for notifying the county office in writing of all potential
June/Summer End-of-Year SRA cases as they arise. Notification
should include the student's name, reason for the end-of-year
SRA, and the district's graduation date.
All June End-of-Year SRA student
profiles must be submitted to the county office no later than five
working days after the district receives the March HSPA score reports
in early June.
All Summer End-of-Year SRA
student profiles must be submitted to the county superintendent no
later than five working days after the district's summer school closing
date.
The county superintendent's office will make every effort
to expedite the review of all June/Summer End-of-Year SRA student
profiles but cannot guarantee that the review and notification
process will be completed prior to the commencement exercise.
