Introduction
19 Texas Administrative Code (TAC) Chapter 89
Adaptations for Special Populations, Subchapter BB
The Commissioner’s Rules concerning the state
plan for educating English language learners
(ELLs) state that all school districts that are
required to provide bilingual education and/or
English as a Second Language (ESL) programs
establish and operate an Language Proficiency
Assessment Committee (LPAC).
7
Purpose of the LPAC Framework
• The Framework for the LPAC process
includes clarification of the legal
requirements for the LPAC and provides
documents and forms to facilitate the training
of LPAC members.
• The forms included in the LPAC Framework
are samples for districts to use for the
implementation of a Bilingual/ESL program.
8
Purpose of the LPAC Framework
The LPAC Framework integrates State and
Title III of Public Law 107-110 (Elementary
and Secondary Education Act) requirements
regarding the:
• identification and placement;
• parental approval;
• annual review; and
• assessment of English language learners
as they attain language and academic
proficiency.
9
Purpose of the LPAC Framework
The Framework delineates the steps that must
be followed in the:
• Identification – Assessing students whose
Home Language Survey have a language
other than English and who are determined
to have limited English proficiency
• Processing – LPAC meets to review
assessment information in order to make
placement decisions
10
Purpose of the LPAC Framework
• Placement – Determining the appropriate
program for students identified as an English
language learner (ELL)
• Monitoring – Reviewing progress and
performance of ELLs in their intensive
language instruction program as well as the
determination for exit and follow up of
students as they transition into an all-English
program

Identification
• Home Language Survey (HLS)
• If the HLS indicates a language other than
English, testing must be initiated to determine
English proficiency.*
*Parent permission for language proficiency testing is not required.
22
Identification of Transferring Students
If the student transfers from a school in Texas:
• Review the withdrawal form, if available, to see if
he/she was being served in a program or
identified ELL in PEIMS.
• Try to get as much original documentation as
possible, especially the HLS (document your
attempts).
• Once a student is identified as an ELL in Texas,
the district does not have to proceed with a new
identification process.
• The LPAC identifies and places student within the
first 20 school days of enrollment. Be sure that all
of the necessary signed documents are in the
student’s LPAC folder.
23
Identification of Transferring Students
If the student transfers from a school outside
of Texas:
• Review any documentation brought in by
the student.
• Proceed with Texas law, including HLS, for
identification as outlined for Texas students
new to the district.
• Review information found in database on
students who have previously attended Texas
schools (refer to previous slide).
24
Timeline
The campus/charter school has 20 school
days to complete the testing and convene as
an LPAC to determine the ELL status of each
student.
