ELP Screener

The ELP Screener application in SLDS allows Georgia Local Education Agencies (LEAs) to record the scores from the English language proficiency (ELP) screener and the Grade K-12 student’s subsequent English learner (EL) identification. The purpose of the ELP Screener application is to provide LEAs with immediate information regarding transfer students’ EL status qualifying date and scores.

There are two levels of access for the ELP Screener application: Submitter and Approver. To obtain the appropriate level of access, user roles must be assigned by the district SIS Coordinator within the SLDS Profile Manager:

Submitter (Teacher role)

· Can add, view, and submit a form.

· Can edit and delete an “In-Progress” form.

· Can NOT edit or delete a “Submitted” form.

· Can NOT add a new form for a student who already has a form with the status “In-Progress” or “Submitted”.

· Can NOT edit or delete a form with the status “Screened”, but can create a new form for that student.

Approver (District and School level roles)

· Can add, view, edit, delete, and submit a form.

· Can edit and delete an “In-Progress” or “Submitted” form.

· Can approve a form as “ESOL Eligible/Not Eligible”.

· Can add a new form for a student who already has a form with the status “In-Progress” or “Submitted”.
