English Language Proficiency Assessments for California (ELPAC) Score Reporting
Student Score Reports (SSRs) for 2020–21
For this test administration year, the additional flexibility offered in test administration impacts the timeline for reporting 2020–21 results. LEAs may receive electronic SSRs and Student Score Data Files for the Summative ELPAC later than they had in prior years for the following reasons:
- Additional analyses are being performed to ensure the validity of the results across remote and in-person testing.
- Because of the extension of the test administration window to July 30, 2021, and the flexibility offered, it may take a longer than it does in a typical year for results from enough representative test takers across the state to be received and to be able to conduct these analyses.
To view sample SSRs, visit the ELPAC Sample Student Score Reports web page.
