Accommodation Resources
The Â鶹ÊÓƵ (TEA) defines accommodations as changes to materials or procedures that enable students to participate meaningfully in learning and testing. Accommodation policies may apply to any student taking the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness (STAAR®) or the Texas English Language Proficiency Assessment System (TELPAS) depending on his or her needs and whether the student meets the eligibility criteria, as applicable.

These policies are divided into three main categories:
- —procedures and materials that should be made available to students who regularly use them during classroom instruction
