Script/Notes: 
Foreign exchange
students should not automatically
receive extended time or use of a
dictionary just because they are
considered a foreign exchange
student. Districts will need to go
through the formal process of
determining if the foreign exchange
student meets the criteria to be
considered a limited English
proficient student prior to offering
accommodations to the student on
the OAA. More information on the
process can be found on the ODE
Web site by typing “LEP” into the
search box.
