Test Administrations for ELPAC: Overview
Unlike the CAASPP, the ELPAC has a fixed statewide testing window. Because LEAs are unable to alter the ELPAC testing windows, the test administrations will be view only.
Use the [Admin Calendar] tab on the LEA Test Administrations screen to view a list of administration calendars for test administrations that are associated with the LEA for the ELPAC.
To view the ELPAC test administration:
- Select LEA to View Test Administration—Select the LEA for which to view the administration calendar.
- LEA Test Administration(s)—ELPAC Admin Calendar—View the instructional calendar start date and the instructional calendar end date in the Administrations Table on the View and Set Up Administrations screen. Select the [View Summary] link to view the summary information for the corresponding administration.
- ELPAC Administration Calendar Summary—View the summary information for the ELPAC administration.
