Single Subject Acceleration (SSA)
In March of 2013, a district level committee approved criteria for Single Subject Acceleration (SSA) which allows students to accelerate in English/Language Arts OR Mathematics. The initial criterion was based upon multiple indicators including formal test data and individual performance data. As a result of student portfolio reviews at the school and district level as part of the SSA process, as well as parental input, the SSA criteria were reexamined by the Central Services Committee and district leadership.
Based upon this review, the district criteria for Single Subject Acceleration (SSA) have been revised for students nominated in Spring of 2013. The revised criteria are as follows:
· Score of 80% on the comprehensive, district benchmark assessment for the course/content to be skipped in Mathematics
OR
· Score of 85% on the comprehensive, district benchmark assessment in the course/content to be skipped in English/Language Arts/Reading
Parents or teachers may nominate students for SSA during the nomination window in April. For specific dates please visit the AIG page. All SSA nominations must made using the Wake County Parent Nomination Form.
For any further questions, please contact the Cedar Fork school office at 919-388-5240, or visit the WCPSS SSA website at http://wakeacceleration.weebly.com/.
