About the Tennessee TCAP

TCAP is Tennessee's state testing program, written to the Tennessee Academic Standards. Students in grades 3-8 take achievement tests in ELA, math and science, with social studies in grades 6-8, and high school students take end-of-course (EOC) exams in core courses.

Which grades and subjects take the Tennessee TCAP

Tennessee Comprehensive Assessment Program (TCAP), run by the Tennessee Department of Education (TDOE).

  • βœ“Grades 3-8: English Language Arts, Mathematics and Science
  • βœ“Grades 6-8: Social Studies
  • βœ“End-of-course: English I and II, Algebra I and II, Geometry, Integrated Math I-III, Biology and U.S. History

Format and timing

TCAP is given in a spring window (mid-April into May). Grades 3-5 test on paper, while grades 6-8 and EOC exams are computer-based. Tests are split into timed subparts. 2025-26 was a standard-setting year for the new science tests, so new science results were reported later than other subjects.

Question types

  • Multiple choice and multiple select
  • ELA editing tasks and written responses scored with a rubric
  • Math constructed response in grades 3-5, such as entering a number, plotting on a number line or graphing

What the results are used for

Tennessee law requires TCAP results to count toward student grades. In grades 3-8, results count as a percentage of the spring semester grade set by local policy, and high school EOC scores count for 15 to 25 percent of the final course grade, with the exact figure set by the district.

For parents

Because TCAP scores count toward your child's grade, practice has a direct payoff. Tennessee's ELA test includes written responses scored with a rubric, so writing a clear paragraph with evidence matters as much as answering multiple choice. The study portal generates TCAP-style reading passages, writing prompts and math practice, with answers behind your parent PIN.

For teachers

Use the test generator for TCAP-style practice aligned to the Tennessee Academic Standards: multiple choice and multiple select with an answer key, plus an ELA writing prompt. Make EOC review packets for English I and II, Algebra I and Biology, and print paper versions for grades 3-5, which test on paper.
