Testing/Parent Qualifying
NOTE: For more information about testing and the law, please see the Washington State Laws page.
Annual Standardized Tests & Teacher-Reviewed Assessments
Locally, group and Individual testing and assessments are offered in the fall and spring by qualified individuals. In addition, Washington allows a homeschool parent to serve as a proctor administering a standardized test or assessment to his/her own child so long as the parent adheres to certain requirements set forth by a test publisher or company. Through Family Learning Organization (FLO) a homeschool parent may administer a Standardized Achievement Test or a Teacher-Reviewed Assessment (a non-test alternative). The assessments are offered in both a "free-style" or "check-list style" format completed by the parent then scored and reviewed by a Certified Teacher. Another option is online testing through Bob Jones University Press whereby the parent or a designated adult may administer the Iowa Assessments Test.
