Student Digital Device Policy for ACAP Testing
Students shall not possess any digital device within the testing room when participating in the ACAP testing. The possession of a digital device by students participating in ACAP testing is strictly prohibited during the administration of an assessment. For the purposes of this policy, digital devices are defined to include anything that can capture, store, relay, or receive electronic information.
The ONLY exception to this policy is for students who have been pre-approved by the school Principal and/or the BTC to have a digital device that is necessary for the health and/or well-being of the student. All exceptions shall be pre-approved in writing by the school Principal and/or the BTC by completing the Digital Device Exception Request form.
If students are in possession of a digital device, whether powered on or off, during the administration of an ACAP assessment, the device will be confiscated, and the student’s test will be invalidated. If the appropriate administrator determines there is reasonable suspicion the device was used to capture, record, share test information, or to facilitate cheating on the assessment, the device will be subject to search pursuant to LEA policy for any information directly related to the assessment being administered. Violations may result in disciplinary action by the LEA in accordance with the LEA’s disciplinary policy.
