ESL English Students - You must enroll in the ESL Orientation section to schedule a testing appointment. (Please note that ESL Orientation is a place holder / identifier only - this is NOT a class you need to attend.)

Question #3: Why Do I Need to Take the CASAS Test? 

The CASAS (Comprehensive Adult Student Assessment System) test helps TAS determine your skills level.

• All High School Diploma, GED/HiSET, and ESL students must take the CASAS test.
• Students take the CASAS test twice per term/semester - 1 pre-test (at the beginning of the term) and 1 post-test (at the end of the term).
  • The pre-test determines your skills level, so TAS can place you in the most appropriate class for your level.
  • The post-test assesses if a student has learned or “made gains” in their skills level, and determines if a student is ready to move on to the next class / next level.
• There is no “pass or fail” on the CASAS test - the scores help TAS assess your knowledge and skills, so that we can put you in the most appropriate class and set you up for learning and success.
