    Note: According to a VDOE spokesperson, “School divisions may offer students the opportunity to complete Board-approved substitute tests rather than the SOL Writing test to meet this state testing requirement. This is a local decision left up to each school division. However, per U.S. Department of Education requirements, the substitute test results are not reflected in the SOL results that were released. Most Board-approved substitute test results are included in the state’s Accreditation results which will be released in September.”
