Posted by:Greetings, LEA and ESC Bilingual/ESL/Title III Contacts,
We trust you’re safe and healthy. Thank you for your continued work to support your English learners and their families during this challenging time.
To consolidate and assist in clarifying information, we have updated the COVID-19 FAQ: TELPAS and LPAC Guidancedocument to include information on TELPAS and TELPAS Alternate test administration procedures as well as the adjustments to LPAC procedures for the 2019-2020 school year, particularly related to English learner reclassification. These were previously two documents that have now been combined. Please take careful notice of revised questions, indicated with a yellow tag.
Also, we have developed a new COVID-19 FAQ: English Learner Guidance document that answers two new questions onEnglish learner identification and prekindergarten registration. Further guidance on English learner services will be added to this document as available.
All of these updated resources can be found on the TEA COVID-19 web page for Special Education and Special Populations.
