The student barcode biographic information is accurate.

Any student barcode biographic information is inaccurate

Before testing, a student barcode label is already affixed to a Session I answer sheet and some of the biographic information on the label is subsequently determined to be inaccurate.A Session I assessment is in progress or completed and a student barcode label is already affixed to a Session I answer sheet, but some of the biographic information on the label is subsequently determined to be inaccurate.

Before testing, a student barcode label is already affixed to a Session II test book and some of the biographic information on the label is subsequently determined to be inaccurate.

A Session II assessment is in progress orcompleted and a student barcode label is already affixed to a Session II test book, but some of the biographic information on the label is subsequently determined to be inaccurate

Student barcode labels are not provided for a student

Affix the first student barcode label to the designated area on the Session I answer sheet. Affix the second student barcode label to the SIS of the Session II test book. (See picture on pages 15 and 16 for the correct

placement of the student barcode label.)

Do not use the student barcode label. Instead, manually complete all sections of the SIS for both Session I and Session II.

Securely destroy the incorrect Session I answersheet. Then fill in all the SIS information on a new Session I answer sheet.

Transcribe answers to a new, unused Session I answer sheet. Then fill in all the SIS information on the new answer sheet. Securely destroy the old Session I answer sheet.

Mark “DO NOT SCORE” on the front of the Session II test book. Then return that test book to Riverside Publishing with other secure non-scorable materials. Then fill in all the SIS information on a new Session II test book.

Mark “DO NOT SCORE” on the front of the original Session II test book. Transcribe answers verbatim to a new, unused Session II test book. Fill in all the SIS information on the new Session II test book. Return the test book that is labeled “DO NOT SCORE” to Riverside Publishing with other secure non-scorable materials.

1. Acquire the student’s missing information for using in completing the SIS. Students MUST have a MOSIS ID.

2. Fill in all biographic information on the SIS and leave the student barcode area blank.
