annual testing for homeschool students
Many states require some form of annual testing for homeschool students. We recommend parents verify any specific requirement their state may have for annual testing. While there are many resources, parents should have some idea of the requirements to homeschool in your state and you can see Homeschool Laws by State here. At NFC Academy we provide annual testing during the month of April. This testing allows the parents to see how their child is performing as compared to other students across the nation and at the same time meet most state requirements for annual testing.
At NFC Academy, annual testing is provided but not required by the Academy. It may be required by your state and if so any of our enrolled students may participate. There is a charge for testing services at NFC Academy.

Students in K-2nd grade will be shipped the booklet form of the Stanford 10 to take. Students must have access to a computer to take the online test as it is not available to be used with phones and tablets. The Stanford 10 test is an untimed test given over a period of several days. While the test is untimed there are suggested times to complete the test and students will be expected to complete the testing material without requiring excessive amounts of time. There must be an approved proctor for the test which can be the parent. Parents may want to consider an outside to proctor the test to help prepare students for future testing in preparation for college like the SAT and ACT which will be taken at a testing center.
Visit our Online Testing Center which is used exclusively for the annual testing of our online students. Some pages on this website require a password which is given to test takers who have registered for the test during the registration period in March. Enrolled K-2 Book Program students use the material we ship to them. |
MORE ABOUT THE STANFORD
Does the Stanford Meet My States Requirements
Generally, yes because it is a nationally norm referenced test taken throughout the nation. Typically, the test is given up through the eleventh grade, but seniors may take the test if required by their state. During their senior year most seniors are involved in taking the SAT and ACT during their senior year in preparation for college. If needed by your state they can take this test.

How To Prepare for The Stanford Testing
Tests like the Stanford and other similar tests are not ones that require a student to study and prepare academically days before the test. Students may do so, but these types of tests cover broader learning goals than individual facts in a specific area. While there could be some specific questions on a test the student will do well in being well rested and follow their similar routines.
