    How to Find STAAR and TELPAS Scores

    House Bill 4545 and Accelerated Instruction

    ​House Bill 4545 recently passed in the 87th Regular Legislative Session. The new statute is effective, as of June 16, 2021, with accelerated instruction practices required during the 2021-2022 school year for all students, based on results from Spring 2021. ​HB 4545 establishes new requirements for accelerated instruction for students who do not pass the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR®). At a high level, the legislation includes:

    • Elimination of grade retention and retesting requirements in grades 5 and 8

    • For any student who does not pass the STAAR test in grade 3, 5, or 8 in math or reading, a new LEA requirement to establish an accelerated learning committee to develop an individual educational plan for the student and monitor progress

    • For any student who does not pass the STAAR test in grades 3–8 or STAAR (EOC) end-of-course assessments, clarification of prior accelerated instruction requirements, specifying that it must include either:

      • Being assigned a classroom teacher who is a certified master, an exemplary, or recognized teacher or

      • Receiving supplemental instruction (tutoring) before or after school, or embedded in the school day​

    Katy ISD District Learning Assessments (DLAs)

    ​DLAs are common formative assessments designed to gather evidence of student learning. As part of a balanced program, DLAs are not intended to be the sole assessment instrument in determining student learning. Rather, they provide teachers and students with diagnostic information to help guide the learning process.

    Additional information about the DLAs can be found in the District Learning Assessment FAQs and in the District Learning Assessment Guidelines.

    The secondary DLA administration calendar. For more specific administration dates, please contact your child's teacher(s).
