FWISD To Administer STAAR Testing May 4-7, May 11-14
The Fort Worth ISD will administer state mandated STAAR testing, in person, May 4-7, 2021 to secondary students, and to grades 3-8 May 11-14. All eligible FWISD students, including virtual students, are encouraged to take part in STAAR testing.
While the Texas Education Agency will not issue district A-F ratings for the 2020-2021 school year because of the disruptions associated with COVID-19, the STAAR testing results will still help provide valuable information that will allow educators, students, and parents prepare for next school year.
Another TEA change for this year does not require students in the 5th and 8th grades to pass the STAAR reading and math tests in order to be promoted. However, high school students must complete their End of Course (EOC) exams in order to graduate.
All STAAR tests must be administered in-person, even if a student has been learning virtually. Although some student testers may actually be taking the test online at a campus, they cannot take the test online at home or anywhere other than an approved testing campus.
The Fort Worth ISD will strictly enforce all COVID health and safety protocols during STAAR testing to make sure that all students are safe at each testing location.
Testing dates for May 4-7 are as follows:
- STAAR Algebra I EOC - all students enrolled in Algebra I + Algebra I re-testers
- May 4 with make-ups through June 11th
- STAAR Biology EOC - all students enrolled in Biology + Biology re-testers

If you have questions about STAAR testing, please contact your child’s campus principal for additional information.
