PARCC Accommodations in IEPs

New Jersey school districts who use OnCourse Special Education can now enjoy the benefit of a new PARCC tab for recording accommodations for every classified student. All PARCC accommodations listed in this area will flow directly into a student’s IEP, eliminating the need to enter data twice.

This guide will show you how entries made in the PARCC tab will modify a student’s IEP in real­time.

In a student’s profile, complete the IEP/504, ELL, or IEP/504/ELL sections of the Personal Needs Profile.

Access the student’s special education profile.

Open any IEP. The changes will affect both draft and implemented IEPs.

Open the section labeled “Participation in State and District Assessments.” The PARCC information will automatically update as changes are saved in the PARCC tab.

Please keep in mind this automatic updating of information concerns ONLY the PARCC exam. If an IEP student participates in other state or district exams, this section of the IEP must still be edited manually. Please see additional Special Education documentation concerning this action.
