LPAC working on the Spring Assessment Administration

English I EOC Special Provision TAC §101.1007

Spring assessment is around the corner, it is the time when LPAC members coordinate and collaborate to assure assessment decisions are available in a timely manner.

For the Special Provision purposes, LPAC is responsible for review and verify that ELLs:

• have been enrolled in U.S. schools 3 school years or less (5 or less if qualifying unschooled asylee/refugee), and

• have not yet attained TELPAS reading advanced high rating in grade 2 or above.

…and remember,

When enrolled in an English I/ESOL I course, an eligible ELL shall not be required to retake the assessment each time it is administered if the student passes the course but does not pass the test.

• Students are not exempt from testing while in the course.

• This provision does not apply to English II or English III.

• This provision is not tied to any particular graduation plan.
