County/School Personnel Secure Materials
				  Agreement
(For all personnel with access to secure materials who will
				  not administer or transcribe an assessment.)
I acknowledge that I will have access to secure assessments
				  in the WV-MAP. I also acknowledge that I have read, understand, and agree to
				  adhere to Policy 2340, including the Testing Code of Ethics (Appendix A), for
				  all assessments within this policy. I understand that these materials are
				  secure, and it is my professional responsibility to protect their
				  security.
I therefore pledge:
1. I will not keep, copy, reproduce, paraphrase, distribute,
				  or review/discuss secure test materials and/or test items.
2. I will not allow access to the test materials or answer
				  keys to any person unless authorized to do so by the county test coordinator or
				  principal.
3. I will not alter students' responses in any manner.
4. I will not share my method of authentication, including,
				  but not limited to, my username and password to access any testing platform or
				  student data/results.
5. I will immediately report any loss of materials, damages,
				  or other deviations from acceptable security procedures to either the county
				  test coordinator or principal.
6. I will not offer technical assistance (e.g., accessing the
				  dictionary, grammar checks, formatting functions, etc.) that might alter the
				  accuracy of student responses in the web-based assessment, before, during, or
				  after the administration of the test.
7. I understand that if a breach of test security or
				  copyright infringement occurs as a direct result of my action(s), my
				  license/certification, if applicable, may be suspended or revoked, or I may be
				  suspended, terminated, or have other action taken.
Please print your name, sign, and return the County/School
				  Personnel Secure Materials Agreement to the county test coordinator or
				  principal before access to secure test materials is provided.
