What is ELPAC?

The English Language Proficiency Assessment for California (ELPAC) is an assessment that students learning English language are required to take if enrolled in California public schools.

ELPAC 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. ELPAC 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 their English skills as seen on the ELPAC test.

Who takes ELPAC?

ELPAC is a requirement for students whose primarily 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.

Students are required to take the test until they are reclassified to Fluent English Proficient (RFEP) status. This reclassification is determined by the Local Education Agency (LEA) and then reported to the California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data System (CALPADS). Once a student has met California’s exit criteria, they will no longer be identified as an EL and will not have to participate in ELPAC.

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

How does ELPAC Pro™ Work?

ELPAC Pro™ evaluates and drives progress for students to become proficient in the use of academic English.

ELPAC Pro™ uses similar rubrics and metrics as used in the ELPAC to provide both assessment and practice.

ELPAC Pro™ Features:

  • Reading comprehension assessment and practice
  • Speaking assessment and practice with Voice Recognition (AI) and recordings for teacher scoring and review
  • Listening assessments and practice with technology enabled question items
  • Writing assessments and practice with AI automated grading

The solution is ELPAC Pro™,  which provides practice in an environment similar to ELPAC and gives educators data to assist their students in readiness for the test.
