<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Good Afternoon!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">In preparation for the 15.2.8 Compliance release coming out, I wanted to make you aware of a situation with the OCBA High School assessment results that districts may have downloaded. When
the announcement went out that the files were available for download, the vendor had changed the names of some of the assessments in the file to a name different than ODE’s published file layout. This caused a delay in getting our import process updated and
out to you as we needed to know if the new names were the accepted names or if the vendor would be correcting them. We’ve worked with the Office of Assessment at ODE and the vendor has corrected the names in the file<span style="background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow">.
If your school’s file has Assessment names such as the incorrect names in the table below, they will need to download a corrected version of their results before they will be able to import their records. The assessment names appear in column 913 – 941.
I’ve attached a copy of the record layout for your reference.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
