How will I know if I am proctoring any testing this year?
Which students have testing accommodations?
Reach out to your Dean or Principal for details on this.
What can students do if they finish the test early?
Students can ready a paper book or work on paper assignments. They cannot be on a device of any kind (Chromebook, cell phone, etc.) or listen to music.
When will the schedule for the testing day be released?
Information will be disseminated by your building testing lead (Dean and/or Principal).
Do all EL students have to take the indicated test (MCA, PSAT, SAT, etc.)?
As mandated by MDE, unless a student has a signed Parent Refusal to Test form, all students learning onsite must take the ACCESS (if applicable) and MCA test(s).
What needs to be covered on the walls during the test?
Per the Minnesota Department of Education, all instruction supports must be covered for all MCA tests. This includes calendars, clock supports, and maps. Motivational posters do not need to be covered.
