This Research Brief describes a model developed as an alternative method for making ESOL exit decisions in 2019-2020. Given the cancellation of the 2019-2020 Statewide student assessment, FSA ELA results which are used as one of the two major components for making ESOL exit decisions will not be available, and an alternative method is needed. This Research Brief describes the development of such a method and assesses its potential effect. The results show that the model can be used for making ESOL exit decisions in 2019-2020 and that these decisions would be conservative: it is unlikely that a student would be exited from ESOL prematurely by using the proposed model.
