If a student receives Special Education or 504 services and is requesting a paper test, please contact the appropriate campus ARD or 504 committee.  There is a different process and form for those requests.  

House Bill 1225 provides a new optional process for school districts to provide a paper administration of a STAAR assessment to any student whose parent, guardian, or teacher requests a paper version.  A request for a paper administration of spring STAAR High School EOCs and spring STAAR grades 3-8 must be submitted by 4 p.m. on December 1st and will be considered on a first come, first serve basis. The number of students who are provided a Paper by Request administration of STAAR may not exceed 3% of the number of eligible students testing. Applicants will be notified of status by 4 p.m. on December 12, 2025.
