ELPAC Practice Tests

The English Language Proficiency Assessments for California (ELPAC) is aligned with the 2012 California English Language Development Standards. The ELPAC 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 (cde.ca.gov).

• Grades K-12
• English Learners Only
• Test Administration

1. Initial Identification - When student enrolls with Excel Academy - Dates and Locations TBD (Assessment will be administered by trained proctors.)
2. Annual Summative Assessment - Beginning in February

• Results are provided by the California Department of Education and sent to the school. Once received, results are mailed to the parents with a letter explaining student scores.

English Learners

English Learners (EL) are targeted for ELPAC testing when the Home Language Survey indicates that their primary home language is a language other than English and are tested during the school year.
