Kindergarten and 1st Grade Students:

  • Teachers will holistically rate their EL students in all four domains based on the use of ongoing classroom observations.

Students in Grades 2-12:

  • Teachers will holistically rate their EL students in the area of Writing using student writing collections.

  • Students will take the TELPAS online assessment for the domains of Reading, Listening, and Speaking.
