ELPT TESTING COMING SOON -February 13th through March 24th
The ELPT assesses the English-language proficiency of students who meet the participation criteria for ELs as they progress from year to year. ELPT draws upon emerging technologies and innovative methods to measure
progress, to encourage reclassification relative to grade-appropriate performance, and determine which school systems are meeting accountability goals for ELs. Results from the ELPT will be used to determine a student’s level of English proficiency and to decide which
language services and supports the student will need to fully participate in core content classes. ELs take this assessment until they achieve a rating of "Proficient". A student is "Proficient" when they attain a level of English-language skill necessary to independently produce, interpret, collaborate on and succeed in grade-level, content-related academic tasks in English.
