Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

High-stakes testing is not exempt for students with severe disabilities; accommodations are made to allow their participation. IDEA (Individuals with Disabilities Education Act) focuses on special education and related services, not high-stakes testing mandates. NCLB (No Child Left Behind) does mandate testing, but IDEA does not specifically mandate high-stakes testing.
