An EL must demonstrate the ability to access challenging academic content and interact with others both academically and socially in an English language setting in order to be considered for reclassification as a Former English Learner (FEL). Evidence of this ability is demonstrated by the student on the annual English language proficiency assessment, ACCESS for ELLs®, and gathered by teachers using standardized Language Use Inventories. The inventories, which are completed by the ESL specialist and one content-area/classroom teacher, in conjunction with the ACCESS score combine for a reclassification score. Students who have IEPs are also eligible for reclassification based on a rigorous examination of their ACCESS score and the input of a school-based team of experts on the student’s abilities and needs.
