Who takes the Initial Assessment (IA) and why? Who takes the Summative Assessment (SA) and why?
Learning Activity
Educators will gain a greater understanding of 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) transitioned from the CELDT to the ELPAC as the state ELP assessment in 2018. The ELPAC is aligned with the 2012 California English Language Development Standards. It is 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.gov)
