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 task.
Either that, OR, improve the Family Report to allow easier bulk-access.

In last week's Tuesday Talks with NWEA, the Back To School updates for 2025 include this feature. I can't attach a screen shot of the slide, but here is what it says:
Schools: Able to print large numbers of reports from a central location, collate by family, and distribute to students.
District: All of the above, and able to upload files into a family or parent portal for electronic sharing.
Key Takeaways: Distributing the Family Report is now easier than ever, and you can include more than one subject in each student's report.
