Sample Parent Letter
http://www.wida.us/assessment/ACCESS/ScoreReports/sampleletters.aspx
Dear Parent or Guardian,
This past winter, English Language Learner (ELL) students in grades kindergarten through twelfth grade participated in the administration of the ACCESS for ELLs® language proficiency test. ACCESS provides a standardized measurement of academic language proficiency for ELL students throughout the state of INSERT NAME OF YOUR STATE, and in other states. With this information, we will be able to monitor individual ELL student progress on an annual basis.
Enclosed you will find your child’s results on ACCESS. The Parent/Guardian Report provides
information about your child’s English Language Proficiency Level. This information is for you to review and keep.
If you have any questions regarding this test or the information that is being sent to you about
how your child performed on this test, please contact me, your child’s ELL teacher, or the school principal.
Sincerely,
