Summative ELP assessments are fast approaching, and the stakes are high. Results directly impact reclassification decisions — making it all the more frustrating when students can't demonstrate their true language competency because they weren't adequately prepared.

The reality is that summative assessments, such as ACCESS, ELPAC, AZELLA, and ELPA21, are comprehensive and rigorous. Students need targeted preparation and practice well ahead of the test day.

Listen to our panel of experienced ELD specialists as they share proven strategies to enhance student performance and support progress toward reclassification.

When English learners know what to expect and have practiced these skills, they can truly “show what they know” in the upcoming summative language proficiency assessments.
