identified by Commissioner Rule, the assessment instrument is inappropriate.
Each student must be assessed based on factors related to student health, including aerobic capacity;
body composition; and muscular strength, endurance, and flexibility, unless a particular factor is
inappropriate for that student because of a health classification defined in 19 Administrative Code 74.31
[see EHAA].

assessment to TEA. The results may not contain the names of individual students or teachers or a
