A. Yes. Home-tutored students must participate in MCAS. (A home- or hospital-tutored student is enrolled in a public school but receives instruction in the home or hospital due to a medical condition.) If possible, the student should be tested at the school under normal test administration conditions. When circumstances make it impossible to test the student at the school, the school must contact the Department to determine how the student will participate in MCAS testing. Please refer to pages 20-21 of the Principal’s Administration Manual for further instructions.
