91°µÍøÆƽâ°æ Identification Test for English Language Learners (NYSITELL)
TheÌý91°µÍøÆƽâ°æ Identification Test for English Language Learners (NYSITELL)Ìýserves as the State’s formal English language proficiency assessment in the process for initially identifying English Language Learners in 91°µÍøÆƽâ°æ. All public and charter schools must follow the steps outlined in the initial and reentry processes prescribed byÌý, which includes administering the Home Language Questionnaire (HLQ) and conducting an individual interview with students who have indicated on the HLQ that a language other than English is spoken at home. Information gathered from the HLQ and the individual interview should be assessed carefully to determine if the student is required to take the NYSITELL. Further guidance regarding the identification of ELLs can be found on NYSED'sÌý.
