INFORMATION ABOUT ORDERING 2007 NYSESLAT


The spring 2007 administration of the New York State English as a Second Language Achievement Test (NYSESLAT) has been scheduled for April 23 to May 18, 2007. Test booklets, directions for administration, and a school administration manual are being prepared by Harcourt Assessment under contract with the New York State Education Department (NYSED). All students identified as limited English proficient (LEP) are to be tested.

Harcourt Assessment mailed a letter and a quick reference guide for ordering these materials to the principals of public, charter, and nonpublic schools.  The initial ordering window will be open from January 16 until March 16, 2007

All orders must be placed via the internet. The Harcourt Spectrum Quick Reference Guide will provide information on how to initiate a NYSESLAT test order using their web address.  Orders should be made by the school principal or designated staff person.  Only one order per school building will be accepted. 

Questions about NYSESLAT orders should also be directed to Harcourt's Customer Support Center (CSC) at 1-800-763-2306 between the hours of 9:00 A.M. and 6:00 P.M. or email customersupportcenter@harcourt.com.  Please make sure to include the district name, school name and BEDS code.
