The ELPAC is designed specifically to assess the English language proficiency of students who are English learners, measuring their skills in the four domains of language.
The ELPAC focuses on English language proficiency, not academic subjects like mathematics. It evaluates listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills.
The ELPAC includes two assessments: the Initial ELPAC, used to identify English learners, and the Summative ELPAC, which monitors progress and determines language proficiency at the end of the year.
The ELPAC is aligned with the California English Language Development Standards, ensuring it accurately measures the language development of English learners in line with state guidelines.
The ELPAC is administered to English learners in all grade levels from kindergarten through grade 12 to assess their language proficiency.
