The State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR) and STAAR End-of-Course (EOC) assessments for Spring 2022 will be administered in April and May. All assessments measure the statewide curriculum.
Beginning in the 2021-2022 school year HB4545 will be fully introduced and implemented. This House Bill requires that any student who does not achieve “Approaches Grade Level” or above be required to attend 30 hours of accelerated instruction in the summer and/or school year following the unsuccessful attempt. (TEC §28.0211 & §25.085 ) Non-participation or missing a test is considered an unsuccessful attempt.
Students take STAAR EOC assessments as they are completing the corresponding courses since these assessments are required for high school graduation (TEC §39.025). A student who does not pass may retake the assessment during the next administration to meet graduation requirements.
These are the assessments given as follows:
