Testing and Assessment FAQs

What tests are required as part of the program?

Ohio Virtual Academy’s (OHVA’s) student assessments include:

  • K12 lesson, unit, and semester assessments
  • NWEA MAP assessments for 3rd – 11th grades
  • Ohio Diagnostic Tests (grades K–3)
  • Ohio State Tests (grades 3–8 and high school by course)

Will my child have to participate in state testing?

All students are required to participate in state testing and are subject to dismissal if they do not, per the Ohio Revised Code 3314.26(A) “2 year rule.” Parents must make arrangements for transportation to ensure their child’s presence at all required state tests and are expected to help the school comply with OHVA’s responsibility to fulfill the state testing requirements.

For more details around this requirement view the state testing information from the OHVA Handbook.
