A local educational agency (LEA) may ask to have the hand-scored responses on a student's test rescored by contacting the assigned LEA Success Agent and making the request. The LEA must provide the following required data for the student—Statewide Student Identifier, school name and code, and LEA information—and content area(s) to be rescored. A purchase order must be provided at the time of the request. All requests to rescore a student response must be made by the last business day in August of the testing year.
