The ELPAC is the test that is used to measure how well students in Kindergarten through Grade 12 understand English when it is not their primary language. Information from the ELPAC helps your child's teacher provide support in listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Click on the link above for more details.

This illustration shows the importance of why each student needs to read for 20 minutes. The amount of minutes read will add up. The more minutes you read, the more successful you will become.
