    Just got a letter from ACCESS testing group that they will not offer MAP testing online for homeschoolers this year. Ugh! Does anyone know an alternate source for homeschoolers?

    Me too!

    If anyone hears about some other source that will allow students to test online from home, please post the details!

    I called NWEA and they after some time were able to give me the contact number of a neighboring district. I will call them and inquire about testing. However, I would prefer to test from home. If anyone finds another test center, please post back and I'll do the same.

    I've called around, and cannot get a local school to grant us space in their computer lab to take this test. I am very put out by ACCESS for giving us no time to try to find another avenue for MAP testing. YS9 took the Explore in Feb, so I guess that can count for achievement testing this year school year while I find a MAP solution in the fall. But I am scrambling to order a bubble test for DS7.
