**Any student who falls below the 10th percentile at their grade level should be given the benchmark assessment at the next lower level until they score above the 10% at a grade level.  These students should be probed weekly at their instructional level to monitor growth.  These students should be probed periodically at one level above instructional level to determine if they have made it above the 10th percentile then continue to probe at the higher grade level.  This would apply only for Aimsweb and STAR.
