TELPAS – Testing Schedules (Elementary, Middle and High School)
What is TELPAS?
The Texas English Language Proficiency Assessment System (TELPAS) fulfills federal requirements for assessing the English language proficiency of ELLs in kindergarten through grade 12 in four language domains: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. TELPAS reports student performance in terms of four English language proficiency levels: beginning, intermediate, advanced, and advanced high. TELPAS results are used in accountability and performance-based monitoring indicators.
Eligibility Requirements:
All K–12 ELLs are required to participate in TELPAS, including students classified as limited English proficient (LEP) in PEIMS who have parents who have declined bilingual/ ESL program services (PEIMS code C).

High School STEAM Fair
This year Southside High School will be hosting a STEAM fair for 9th-12th grade students to compete in. A STEAM Fair has its roots in a traditional science fair, but allows the students to investigate beyond the traditional branches of science. STEAM stands for “Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Technology” and is meant to embrace ideas that incorporate and integrate the many academic disciplines.
The event will be held virtually on Tuesday March 2nd at 5:00. Due to COVID, students will be able to present remotely to the judging panel using Google meets.
