19 Tex. Admin. Code § 101.5001 - Testing Calendar
(a) In accordance with
Texas Education Code (TEC), §33.0812, the commissioner of education shall
determine the school week during the school year in which the primary
administrations of assessment instruments are administered. The primary
administrations of assessments occur during the first week of each testing
window when assessments are scheduled for the state. For the purpose of
scheduling assessment instruments during the primary administration week under
TEC, §
39.023(a) and
(c), the first instructional day of a week is
Monday.
(b) Through publication on
the Texas Education Agency website, the commissioner shall provide the
University Interscholastic League (UIL) with a three-year calendar of dates,
beginning with the 2006-2007 school year, reserved for testing on or before May
1 of the year preceding the three-year cycle of reserved testing
dates.
(c) The commissioner may
change the dates reserved for testing as necessary. The commissioner shall
notify the UIL of any changes to the schedule for the primary administrations
of the statewide assessments.
(d)
If a change to the primary administration testing calendar creates a scheduling
conflict between a UIL area, regional, or state competition and the statewide
assessments, the commissioner shall determine whether those UIL events must be
cancelled or rescheduled.
