About FBISD’s Instructional Para Assessment
Fort Bend ISD’s Instructional Para Assessment evaluates a candidate’s knowledge of math, science, social studies and English Language Arts (ELA), and also includes a writing prompt to assess a candidate’s grammar, punctuation and communication skills.
Exams are offered on a weekly basis, and candidates will have up to two opportunities to re-take the exam if they do not achieve a passing score on their first attempt.
After registering for the Instructional Para Assessment, you will receive additional information regarding the next scheduled administration and instructions on how to participate.

Note: Candidates who earned a passing score on the ETS Highly Qualified Paraprofessional Assessment, FBISD’s former paraprofessional assessment tool, will not need to re-take the Instructional Para Assessment. Existing ETS and FBISD Assessment scores will be considered during the applicant screening process.
