Restore permissions to users to update our own districts
Removing our permissions to edit our own district has been disastrous. We've had to add a new school, and where we could have done so immediately in the past, we have now waited over a week, and the school still has not been updated. This is ridiculous.

Bring back the “Create Student” button in Active Session for Proctors
Ever since the recent update, the “Create Student” button in Active Session has disappeared for District Proctors.
I get it — streamlining user roles is probably meant to improve clarity and control. But honestly, this was not a smart move. That button was essential for those last-minute situations when a student shows up for testing but isn’t rostered yet.
Having to go through Manage Students or upload a full roster file just to create one student profile is not efficient, especially in high-pressure testing moments. The old setup let us create a student in seconds, right in Active Session. It…

Emails
An admin reported that teachers are receiving emails when new user accounts are created. They’ve asked that these notifications be suppressed, as they will handle user communication directly. Please update the system to stop these emails from being sent to end users upon account creation.

Improve Email Security from Your Domains
Currently NWEA does not have SFP records for its domains. This allows any SMTP server to say they are from NWEA when they are not. SFP records state to the world which SMPT servers are allowed to email on your behalf. Currently the entire world is able to email on your behalf because you don't have SFP records defined in your domain. I can not whitelist any domain to be allowed into our network if anyone can spoof who it is coming from. Please add needed SFP records to all you domains so we can trust emails are coming from…

Add or remove available tests for a school within a district
Allow tests to be added or removed from a school within a district rather than only district-wide.
If I have an Elementary School, I want them to have access to different tests than a high school or middle school or even a summer school, where we may just use screening tests.
Having to scroll through every test makes it more stressful, with a higher likelihood of mistakes.

Please include the amount of time tested on the Achievement Status & Growth Summary with Quadrant Chart
Please include the amount of time tested on the Achievement Status & Growth Summary with Quadrant Chart. It is very helpful for the teachers to have this information as they try to encourage their students to take more time on future tests.

Potential Cheating Indicators
Since AI misuse has become prevalent, NWEA should develop "indicators" to flag test results for potential cheating behaviors. Districts could investigate to confirm or refute flagged scores.

Bring the NWEA Secure Browser app up to industry standards.
This is more focused feedback than a suggestion, and we hope it's not taken lightly.
The NWEA Secure Browser app on Windows is notoriously worse at handling any kind of network disturbance—interruptions, hiccups, temporary disconnections, you name it—than its ChromeOS counterpart.
We’ve spent countless hours “troubleshooting” issues with NWEA support between the Winter 2024–2025 and Spring 2024–2025 periods, but the word troubleshooting is doing some heavy lifting here. While every person who has assisted us by phone has been polite, professional, and willing to help, it’s clear that NWEA lacks the systems and tools necessary to effectively support large schools…

Testing device identification
It would be helpful if the test proctor screen could identify how a student was accessing the MAP assessment. We have students that are finding ways to cheat by either logging into Chromebooks and then going to NWEA, but able to switch screens, or possibly using a different operating system to bypass our safeguards.

MAP Report for Administration
I would love to have a report where I can see all students in a spreadsheet with all of their existing scores by term. I.E. For math student ben I would be able to see each of his scores for whaterver date range I pull. This would be very helpful for quality control and to quickly identify students who are not progressing.

Family Access to MAP Results
The process by which to share MAP results with families is miserable. The family report is not batch-exportable so until NWEA decides to prioritize this simple but critical aspect of the Family Report, the process remains a clerical and technical challenge.
I would strong advocate for NWEA to institute a system by which parents can enter their child's ID (provided and rostered by the school) and through this system, they can access their child's MAP report. This would remove the school as the "middle man" in the distribution of MAP reports and significantly ease the burden of schools in this…

Please use Status Page for Outages
If you are having an outage, could you please update your status page: https://status.nwea.org
This would alleviate spending time on the phone to get an update that could have been posted. I was asked to enter this into this portal by the customer service rep who confirmed you were having an issue, but didn't know why the status page wasn't updated. Thank you.

Family Report
I print several Family Reports multiple times a year. Since batch printing Family Reports is not an option, can you please modify the interface?
Currently: once a report is printed, a button appears saying "Request Another Report." However, it does not work and you have to go all the way back to "Map Growth Reports" screen, scroll back down to to Family Reports and repeat the process.
It would be awesome if that button brought you right back to the Family Reports screen!3 votes -
Highlight tracking
When text is read aloud at K-2, it would be helpful to have the words highlight as it is read aloud to support tracking, especially for longer assessments

Update the app
The app is outdated in comparison to all the educational apps we have on the IPADS these days. We have had so many issues with students not being able to slide words or numbers, but click to get the dots in order to move. It needs to be updated. It's not user friendly, we actually had a student who had to click down to get the right answer, move words to match in the click down and way too many steps. Gotta find a better way.
