Students who achieve an overall performance level of Proficient on the OELPA exit from English learner status.  The overall performance level of Proficient is defined as domain scores of 4s and 5s in any combination across all nonexempt domain tests (listening, reading, writing and speaking).  For students who achieve a proficiency status of Progressing or Emerging, schools will determine and provide the appropriate services to ensure students' development of English language proficiency and access to the curriculum.
