Aldine ISD Announces STAAR Testing Dates

Disponible en: Español

Students are encouraged to take the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness on campus.


As with many events, this spring’s STAAR testing schedule will look different than it has in the past. This year, students will be scheduled to test according to their current learning model (on campus or at home). However, it is important to note that all students are required to test in their assigned school building.

Schools will follow all of the district’s safety guidelines to ensure that students and staff are as safe as possible. Campuses have gotten creative and are using additional spaces in their buildings to ensure social distancing.

Scores will be Used to Plan for 2021-2022

This year’s tests are important. The scores will not be used to rate schools or the district or evaluate teachers. Instead, Aldine ISD will use the results to benchmark student performance and plan for how the district will continue teaching for the next school year.

Promotion

The scores will not affect promotion for students in any grade.

High School Seniors

The end-of-course (EOC) assessments are currently required for graduation.

Transportation/School Meals

Transportation and meals are available to everyone, and make-up days will be available.

Communication From Schools

All students taking the paper-based test will begin testing this week and should have been contacted directly by campus staff. If you have any questions, please contact your child’s teacher or campus principal directly.
