					 period pursuant to section
					 855(b)(4)).
(b) The testing conducted shall be consistent
					 with the pupil's grade of enrollment as noted in CALPADS on the first day that
					 the pupil started testing in any component of the achievement test. Testing
					 shall be conducted within the school's or track's available testing window
					 pursuant to section
					 855.
(c) No later than start of the 2014-2015
					 school year, for the purposes of the CAASPP System, a charter school which is
					 not an LEA as defined in Education Code section

					 designated the oversight agency by the State Board of Education
					 (SBE).

					 arrangements for the testing of all eligible pupils in alternative education

					 administered in a home or hospital except by a test administrator or test
					 examiner. No test shall be administered to a pupil by the parent, guardian, or
					 sibling of that pupil. This subdivision does not prevent classroom aides from

					 administrator or test examiner, provided that the classroom aide does not
					 assist his or her own child, and that the classroom aide electronically agrees
