ACCESS 2.0 English Learner Proficiency Definition
With the change from ACCESS 1.0 to ACCESS 2.0, a reexamination of Minnesota’s definition for English language proficiency on the assessment was required. Based on relevant data and stakeholder input, the Commissioner has approved the new proficiency definition to be an overall composite score of 4.5 with at least three of the domain scores (reading, writing, speaking, listening) at 3.5 or higher. This new ACCESS 2.0 proficiency score can be used in making exit decisions in spring of 2017. Questions regarding English Learner programming and proficiency can be directed to Dennis Duffy or by calling 651-582-8304.
