          • Parent Directions to Access State Testing Results

            As in previous years, families will be able to access detailed information about their child’s areas of strength, as well as any gaps in learning, by reviewing STAAR and STAAR EOC results. 

            Parents will need to access the state’s Family Portal for all testing results by using their child’s Unique Student Access Code. Previous Unique Student Access Codes are no longer effective in the Family Portal.

            Test results will be available in the Family Portal by the end-of-day listed in the chart.

            The Unique Access Code:

            • remains the same for the student during the entire state testing program,
            • located on any past Confidential Student Report (CSR) in the bottom right corner of the CSR, and
            • located in the Home Access Center (HAC).

            ​​​

            Parents have three options to obtain state testing scores:

            • utilize the Home Access Center (HAC) to find the Unique Access Code and/or view TELPAS scores,
            • utilize the state Student Portal with the Unique Access Code, or
            • look up the Unique Access Code within the state Student Portal.

            ​The new and improved redesigned CSR will include the new performance labels. Parents may review a short video, additional resources, and the release timeline on the new STAAR report card also known as STAAR confidential student report (CSR) on the TEA website    An adopted amendment which establishes a final set of performance standards for the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR®) Grades 3-8 and end-of-course (EOC) assessments beginning with the 2016-2017 school year was approved.   The table below provides the change from the old performance labels to the new performance labels.
