2022 Achievement Testing Information
This is the time of year when our program is gearing up for its required annual achievement testing. Our school administers the Pearson Stanford 10 which is a test of very high quality and standards. We are pleased with the procedures of this test and the results we have seen. We are looking forward to meeting with you and your children and administering the test this school year.

In order to maintain continued enrollment with our program, it is mandatory that all children are administered achievement testing in 2nd through 12th grades if they are not taking the ACT. Any student who does not take either the ACT or our achievement test will be removed from enrollment. We will make exceptions for students who are classified as special education or whose parents contact the office and receive an exemption for extenuating circumstances.*
|
All 11th and 12th graders who choose not to do the Pearson Achievement Test must be registered to take the ACT College entrance exam. You may register online for the ACT at www.actstudent.org. Please use our school (CHOICE in Hohenwald, TN) and all results will be forwarded to us as well.

All questions should be addressed to our office, during normal office hours. You can contact us by phone at (931) 796-7689. We will be in and out of the office during the testing dates, so please leave a message. We will return your call as soon as possible. Please note that we will NOT be at the office on testing days, and thus will be unable to answer questions on those days; if you need an address for a testing facility, they are listed below.

*Distance from our testing sites and work schedule conflicts will NOT be considered valid circumstances for exemption. If you live out of state or at some distance from our testing sites, you may attempt to join a local Christian school's achievement testing group. The CHOICE office staff will NOT be responsible to make these arrangements, nor to find a facility in your area willing to work with you. If you do find a school willing to allow your student(s) to test there, please ask the school to sign you up exactly as their other students and pay whatever fees they require (you will not be required to pay our fee as well, just contact our office and let us know what program you are testing with). The CHOICE office will NOT send out testing materials for your student. Once you receive your results, please forward a copy to our office for your student's permanent record.
