TEKS Checks are short formative assessments that we use to see how you are doing on mastering the content. These short assessments are used by your teachers to guide learning. As a student, we don't want you to stress about TEKS exams. We do want you to do your best in order to showcase what you have mastered! If you get a question wrong...that is ok. It just means you have not mastered this skill...YET! You will have time to continue to work at it and your teachers will support you.
Your STAAR tested subjects will use TEKS checks.

We use Edugence to assign your TEKS checks. You can find Edugence on the home screen of your classlink. Use the instructions provided by your teacher to walk you through how to access and complete your checks.
TEK checks are graded as the same value as a Quiz.
TEKS checks will be scored on the 100-point scale, just like other grades.
It is important to do your best on TEKS checks.
It is also important that you ONLY use your brain on TEKS checks. No notes, no outside resources.
TEKS Checks in Edugence don't have a built in 2nd attempt. If you would like to improve your score, please use your teacher's instruction.
