Submitting Student Responses

For special paper administrations, students should be instructed to record their responses in their test booklets. Authorized district staff members must enter student responses into DEI for scoring, as student responses in test booklets will not be scored. Districts are responsible for entering student responses into DEI by 11:59 p.m. (CT) on the last day of the test administration window. Refer to the specific test administration instructions and the Entering Student Responses into DEI Directions.

For special holistic administrations of TELPAS listening, speaking, and writing, the ratings that are recorded on the TELPAS Student Rating Roster must be entered on the Holistic Ratings Upload template and submitted in TIDE. Districts are responsible for submitting ratings in TIDE by 11:59 p.m. (CT) on the last day the test administration window.
