Dear A-C Students and Parents,
As we are well into 2011-2012 school year, I wanted to take this time to remind you of our security measures concerning academic assessments surrounding the Ohio Academic Assessments and the Ohio Graduation Test. The Ohio Academic Assessment (O.A.A.) is given to students in grades 3rd-8th. The Ohio Graduation Test (O.G.T.) is given to students in the 10th grade. These are both state-wide assessments.
Rule 3301-13-02 paragraph J of the Ohio Administrative Code (OAC) concerning testing security states: "each school district and participating school shall communicate to all employees and students the applicable written procedures and penalties established to paragraph (F) of this rule. Students and staff shall be reminded of these provisions prior to the beginning of each test administration period." This letter is designed to give students and parents the aforementioned "applicable written procedures and penalties" according to this rule. This rule can be found under the Ohio Administrative Code on Ohio Department of Education's website.
Cheating on any assessment is not acceptable at our school. Any form of a test security violation on a state-wide assessment can have extreme penalties for the perpetrator. Some examples of test security violations by students might be as follows: Stealing a test booklet to study or let others study. Secure a "crib sheet" or marked answer document from a teacher or another student. Steal answers from another student during testing. Acquire help from another student during make-up days of testing. Use a "non OGT" calculator on the OGT test or unapproved tool or calculator as specified by ODE on any state-wide assessment. In addition, students are not permitted to bring any electronic devices into the testing area. This includes, but is not limited to: cell phones, Personal Digital Assistants (PDA's), camera, iPod's and iPad's. Even if any of the previous mention devices are turned off when found this can still be a test security violation.
The consequences of cheating or violating security for any student or staff member on a state-wide assessment can be severe. Any alleged test security violation is investigate by the local school district and reported to the Ohio Department of Education within 10 days of determining that a test security violation has occurred. If the investigation determines that a violation occurred, any of several consequences may follow: one or more students documents may be scored; student scores may be invalidated; the District Board of Education, after appropriate procedures are followed, may take disciplinary action against the student; the district may suspend or terminate an employee found guilty of cheating or helping a student to cheat; the State Board of Education, following an appropriate procedure, may suspend a certificate/license; and a law enforcement agency, following appropriate procedure, may suspend a certificate/license; and a law enforcement agency, following an appropriate investigation, may prosecute under the state criminal code. Any student whose score is invalidated will have this shown on their permanent school assessment record.
The Ohio Legislature, the Ohio Department of Education, and the Amanda-Clearcreek School take matters of test security and cheating very seriously. We want you to know we will do everything in our power to make sure all students get equal and fair access and treatment as they participate in the state
mandated assessments. Student's school attendance does play a crucial role in their individual achievement and scores. Student's attendance does play a crucial role in their individual achievement and scores. Student's attendance during their given assessment is vital in helping maintain test security and fairness.
We wish our students much success in the assessment process as together we strive towards the goal as stated in our school mission's statement: Academic Commitment to Excellence and Success, ACES.
If you have any questions or concerns related to this letter, please call me at 740-969-72-52 ext. 2205 or email me at Jody_Dupler@Amanda.k12.oh.us
I wish you and your student the best this school year.
Sincerely,
Jody Dupler
