What is ELPA21?

ELPA21 is an assessment that students learning the English language are required to take across multiple states.

ELPA21 assesses the English language proficiency of students who have been identified as English learners (ELs). Assessments are given in four language domains, including listening, speaking, reading, and writing. ELPA21 evaluates the progress that each English learner makes when becoming proficient in academic English.

Students sometimes struggle because there are limited to no options for practicing the English skills that are tested on the ELPA21 test.

Who takes ELPA21?

ELPA21 is a requirement for students whose primary language is not English. This often includes ELs whose parents do not speak English and/or may have declined bilingual or English as a Second Language (ESL) program services.

Each state using ELPA21 has different criteria to determine English Learners’ proficiency as well as what is needed to exit out of that state’s English Language program.*

The problem that schools often see is that students are scoring lower than expected on ELPA21 and educators are unable to benchmark students to determine readiness.

*To find out more information on exit criteria, please visit your state’s Department of Education site.
