Hello Home School Families,

Testing season is in full swing. I wanted to make you aware of the various testing opportunities, both in-person and remote, available to you this year. 

First, in-person group achievement test dates and locations are shown below. We’re pleased to offer some new locations this year.  To sign up, contact the coordinator directly either by phone or email.  

Want to test in the comfort of your home? Remote testing via zoom is a popular option. Basic Skills is offering the following remote test dates:

To sign up your children for one of our remote group test dates, go here:https://www.basicskills.net/testing/#1586360367063-ad3075a0-3406. If you are wanting to schedule a private or semi-private remote test, contact Jenny at 503-557-2223. 

In addition to the in-person and remote group testing opportunities shown above, we have a number of examiners who are available to do in-person private and semi-private tests all over the state. Please go to our locate an examiner map (https://www.basicskills.net/locate-an-examiner-oregon/) for a complete listing.

To obtain practice tests, go here:   https://www.basicskills.net/product-category/practice-tests/. 

Finally, a question we’re often asked is, “What is the deadline to complete testing?” It continues to be August 15. Historically, ESD’s have accepted exam results of testing that has taken place after the deadline. That is why we offer remote testing into September.     

If you have questions about anything written above, please don’t hesitate to be in touch with us by phone (503) 650-5282 or email at .

Thanks for reading,

Curt Bumcrot, MRE
