	 31.8(1)  Baseline tests. The baseline test results of each child subject to the baseline test requirement of Iowa Code section 299B.4 and subrule 31.7(1) shall be reported by the test administrator to the school district of residence of the child and to the department of education by June 30 of the year in which the test was taken.
The baseline test shall serve only as data from which subsequent progress shall be measured; the baseline test alone is not an indication of educational progress or a lack of progress.

The results of a standardized test taken by a child subject to the annual assessment requirements shall be reported by the test administrator to the district of residence of the child and to the department of education by June 30 of the year in which the test was taken. The results shall be submitted in original form as received from the agency responsible for scoring the test.
	 31.8(3)  Portfolio assessments. The assessment results of a child’s educational portfolio made by a qualified Iowa licensed practitioner or practitioners shall be submitted by the portfolio evaluator(s) to the child’s parent, guardian or legal custodian, the district of residence of the child, and the department of education by June 30 of the year in which the assessment was done.
The report shall be in narrative form and shall include assessments of the child’s achievement and progress in the curriculum areas including reading, language arts, and mathematics for children whose grade level of study is fifth grade and below, and those subjects plus the additional areas of science and social studies for students whose grade level of study is sixth grade and above. The report shall include a statement as to whether the child has demonstrated adequate progress in each of the areas of study for which the portfolio evaluator is qualified to provide an assessment. The report shall be signed by each evaluator.
