English Learner Progress Calculation

California has transitioned to a new English proficiency assessment: the English Language Proficiency Assessments for California (ELPAC). Because the ELPAC is a new test, a performance level (color) is not available. Therefore, the Dashboard will report the percent of English learner students who scored in each of ELPAC’s four performance levels:

• Level 1 – Minimally Developed
• Level 2 – Somewhat Developed
• Level 3 – Moderately Developed
• Level 4 – Well Developed

For more information on the ELPAC performance levels, visit the Summative ELPAC General Performance Level Descriptors Web page.

Please note that the 2018 Dashboard will continue to report the performance levels of student groups, including English learners, for all other state measures.
