SR/PNP Window for the November 2024 Retest

Schools must complete the Student Registration/Personal Needs Profile (SR/PNP) process during the window listed below. The SR/PNP process is used to register students for both computer-based and paper-based testing and to order student test materials.

To assist schools in registering students, on September 16, DESE will place a .CSV file in MCAS 2024 DropBoxes in the DESE Security Portal. For assistance logging in to the Security Portal, contact the district (or organization) Directory Administrator.

The following resources are available to help complete the SR/PNP:

Questions about the SR/PNP should be directed to the MCAS Service Center at 800-737-5103, and policy questions should be directed to DESE at 781-338-3625. High schools should note that if they do not have students participating in the retests, they must email the MCAS Service Center prior to the end of the window with the district name and code, as the MCAS Service Center will call schools serving high school students that do not complete the SR/PNP or do not contact them before the deadline.
