6. Roster Verification Claiming Acknowledgement – We ask all teachers complete the RV claiming acknowledgement.

Annually, teachers undertake Roster Verification (RV) for TCAP Assessments to ensure precise allocation of instructional time for each rostered student. In instances where a teacher cannot personally complete RV, school administration requires written permission from the teacher to act on their behalf.

We kindly request your authorization to conduct roster verification at the conclusion of the 2025-2026 school year if you are unable to do so yourself.

By completing the Google Form, you are selecting your achievement measure for the 2025-2026 school year. You will receive your selection automatically via email upon submission.
