- #15 ROSTERING-working backwards -Use 3 week buffer from firsts divisions testing -All planning works backward from testing calendar -Testing events normally scheduled year prior in May for upcoming academic year
- #16 STUDENT MACHINES AND IMAGING -All machines reimaged every year. Test Taker included on images -Upgraded to latest test taker version -Students 6-12 are on MAC Lion -Students 3-6 are on MAC Snow Leopard (applications needed for instruction not supported in Lion) -Student machines in grades 6-10 are checked by TRF prior to testing -Study halls or electives-Only checking application opens and connects to testing server -Student machines ES Carts-2:1 Grades 4 and 5, Grade 3 2 carts of 20.

Only one grade level testing at time/division, however, multiple divisions means the possibility of testing overlaps.
