Graduates Without All 4 EOCs• Districts can use the EOC Early Warning Report within IC but OAA
will provide DACs with a list of seniors missing EOC scores or with a non-participation to assist with roster cleanup.
• When spring testing rosters open in late April, accountability rosters for graduates will contain students with and without EOC exam scores.
• Districts will be able to file non-participations in SDRR during spring rosters
• All students should be tested or the graduating accountable school will receive the lowest test score for missing exams.

EOCGeneral Information
EOC assessments establish a common rigor for core courses.Current EOC assessments are for courses which are high school graduation requirements.ACT’s QualityCore® program will link student performance to national results.
Constructed Response
Constructed Response (CR) may be generated and scored locally. ACT QualityCore resources may be used.Local school will determine how to incorporate the CR into a student’s final grade.
KDE:OAA:DSR: 3/5/2015Policy: Students are tested at the completion of all coursework.
