The following guidance was published in Principal's Digest on Tuesday, Jan. 9, 2024.

Paraprofessionals and school aides cannot serve as test-room proctors. You should instead schedule paraprofessionals and school aides to serve as hall monitors to ensure that students do not leave the test room, unescorted, until they have completed their exam and the uniform admission deadlines (i.e., deadlines by which all students must begin testing) have passed. Additionally, school counselors cannot serve as test-room proctors or hall monitors unless it is an emergency (i.e., other staff are unavailable).
