Testing

One of the requirements of our personalized distance education program is to participate in all mandatory state tests. Tests are administered through the student’s School of Enrollment and proctored by a OpenEd representative. Testing will take place in the student’s home via online proctoring.

All students will be required to to take the corresponding tests listed below. Visit the Oregon Department of Education website for more information on all assessments.

Students in grades 3-8 will also participate annually in a local performance assessment via a specially designated Weekly Learning Log due in the spring. Refer to the InfoCenter Calendar for specific dates.

As State law requires, an opt-out form* for your School of Enrollment is available. Students in grades 3-8 will have access to this form when they submit their OpenEd schedule. If you need to change your status after submitting the schedule, please contact assessments@mytechhigh.com.

*The opt-out form does not apply to the science test or to the local performance assessment.

  • For science assessments, parents may request their student be exempt from testing based on disability or religion. Families requesting an exemption will provide a reason via InfoCenter and will receive additional instructions from assessments@mytechhigh.com. Requests for exemption must satisfy the conditions listed in the OSAS Science Assessment FAQ section on this Oregon Department of Education page.

  • Although students cannot opt-out of the local performance assessment, families will choose between multiple options available to meet this requirement.
