          • TELPAS Testing

             

            The Texas English Language Proficiency Assessment System (TELPAS) is an annual assessment for students who have been identified as emergent bilingual students. TELPAS assesses English language proficiency in four language domains—listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

             

            Raines Academy will be giving the TELPAS test to all emergent bilingual students on February 19-21.

            Katy ISD provides all students with academic opportunities needed to prepare them for college and beyond. Participation in the SAT School Day is an important step in preparing for college.

            The SAT is accepted by all U.S. colleges; it measures what students are learning in high school and what they need to know to succeed in college and their career. With SAT School Day, all students have access to this important stepping-stone. Students can choose which colleges, universities, and / or scholarship programs to send their four free score reports.

            Students can prepare for this exam by reviewing the information in the SAT School Day Student Guide. Students can use the information located on the College Board’s website to create a study plan.

            What Should Students Do Before Test Day?
