STAAR Released Test Questions
TEA releases two types of test questions for STAAR—test forms and sample questions. A test form is a set of released test questions previously administered together to Texas students and reflects the STAAR test blueprints. Sample test questions are small subsets of test questions released from the STAAR test banks. These test questions may have been previously administered.
Released Test Questions
Beginning with the 2022–2023 school year, STAAR assessments are administered primarily online. Released test questions for STAAR online assessments are available on the Practice Test Site. PDF versions of STAAR released tests are no longer available since STAAR is now an online assessment with technology enhanced items.
