Return Completed Kindergarten Through Grade Two (K–2) Writing Materials.

Dear LEA ELPAC Coordinator:

LEAs should return completed K–2 Writing Answer Books at least twice a month, as a minimum number of Writing Answer Books are needed to start the quality-control process for scoring and reporting as well as the data analysis of field test items.

Note: If an LEA has a small number of students, the LEA may wait until accumulating a full box, or until the LEA has completed testing, to return Answer Books.

To request additional cartons (white boxes) or Group Information Sheets (GISs), complete the Carton and GIS Request Form .

The next date for pick up is May 19, 2023. The final opportunity for returning K–2 Writing Answer Books will be the following pickup date on June 16, 2023. Please follow the Summative ELPAC Packing and Return Instructions.

For a list of all pickup dates, please refer to the List of Key Dates table in the Summative ELPAC Online Test Administration Manual .

When returning Answer Books, LEAs have the option to download and complete the ELPAC School/Group List to serve as a reference for the LEA and ETS as to what is being returned in each shipment. It is recommended that LEAs keep a copy of this document for their records to track the test materials being returned to ETS.

Direct any questions about the ELPAC to the LEA's assigned LEA Success Agent . Visit the California Outreach web page for other support options.

Sincerely,

California Outreach Team
