Yes. Anyone may serve in the role of reader and/or scribe for your child on test day so long as they have not also provided direct SSAT test preparation. Please remember that a proctor will always be present as well.

Is my child's teacher or support staff permitted to assist them as their reader and/or scribe on test day?

How long is my student's approval for testing accommodations valid for the SSAT?

My student has already been approved for certain accommodations on the SSAT, but I would like to have additional accommodations considered for approval. What should I do?

If my student has approved accommodations and chooses to take the SSAT twice in the same admissions cycle, do I need to re-apply for testing accommodations for each test date?

What is Direct Access for accommodations?

How do I register for Sunday testing in Israel for a Standard test?

How can I add additional accommodation for my student?

Are students with temporary impairments such as broken bones, concussions, or the like eligible to receive accommodations when taking the SSAT?

Are students with limited English proficiency (LEP) or those considered to be learning English as a Second Language (ESL) eligible to receive accommodations on the SSAT?

Are students able to take the SSAT with unlimited time if that is what they are provided at school or on state testing?
