What is the ELPAC?
Learning Activity
Educators will gain a greater understanding of what the English Language Proficiency Assessments for California (ELPAC) are and who the eligible English Learners in kindergarten through grade twelve that will take the ELPAC Summative Assessment.
“State and federal law require that local educational agencies administer a state test of English language proficiency (ELP) to eligible students in kindergarten through grade twelve. The California Department of Education (CDE) is transitioning from the CELDT to the ELPAC as the state ELP assessment by 2018. The ELPAC will be aligned with the 2012 California English Language Development Standards. It will be comprised of two separate ELP assessments: one for the initial identification of students as English learners (ELs), and a second for the annual summative assessment to measure a student’s progress in learning English and to identify the student's level of ELP.” (Source: CDE, ELPAC Program Overview)
