Scheduling TELPAS Alternate Test Administrations

TELPAS Alternate is a holistic inventory for which observations must be submitted in DEI. For the 2024–2025 school year, the six-week test administration window for TELPAS Alternate is February 17–March 28, 2025. Each district should establish a local schedule to administer TELPAS Alternate during the testing window. District personnel should plan to complete holistic ratings during the first five weeks of the testing window and reserve the last week to submit data in DEI and enter student information in TIDE, including score codes and years in U.S. schools. In addition, district personnel should verify that all students have been accounted for by 11:59 p.m. (CT) on March 28, 2025.
