NWEA and Literacy Implementation Process
- This process applies only to districts using the following supported programs:

|
|
- MAP Growth data can be shared using all Access Service types.
- Districts must have both the digital Teacher and Student Editions assigned.
- NWEA is paired with McGraw Hill at the district level and will display in all schools and classes.
- Both NWEA and McGraw Hill Student ID's must match. This is how the data is pulled and associated from one platform to the other and associated with specific students.
- Once the product integration is set up between McGraw Hill and NWEA, McGraw Hill will sync the MAP Growth data daily at 9am PST.
Sharing NWEA Data with McGraw Hill
Enabling the automatic data share feature requires a District Assessment Coordinator to “Accept Consent” in the Manage Data Partners Dashboard.
By accepting consent, the District Assessment Coordinator, on behalf of the district, is agreeing to allow NWEA to share data with McGraw Hill.
For more information and instructions on how to manage data sharing consent, visit the NWEA Connection: Manage Data Partners Dashboard site.

Within 1-3 business days after submitting data sharing consent, the District Assessment Coordinator will receive a registration confirmation email from mheclientservices@mheducation.com. The email will confirm that the pairing of NWEA with McGraw Hill has been completed and includes any additional necessary actions.
It is strongly preferred that the District Assessment Coordinator initiating the data share with McGraw Hill has a McGraw Hill account and is affiliated with the district requested. If these conditions are not met, this can result in a delay in pairing.
If MAP Growth data is shared with McGraw Hill, but the district has not met the product integration requirements, McGraw Hill may deny the request. Further explanation of why the pairing was unsuccessful will be provided to the District Assessment Coordinator who made the request.

MAP Growth Data Not Generating
NWEA and McGraw Hill Student IDs must match to ensure a successful product integration. McGraw Hill's system uses this identifier to match with the student in NWEA, so that the correct student’s data can be pulled for NWEA MAP Growth reports. If the Student ID does not match, this can be resolved by modifying rostering with either NWEA or McGraw Hill, depending on the Access Service.
For more information on Access Services, see Access Service Descriptions. Districts will be notified if modification to rostering is needed when they receive their confirmation email from McGraw Hill.
Districts Using Manual Rostering
This includes districts that are Direct Login and Manual Rostering and Single Sign-On and Manual Rostering.
If a student does not have an assigned Student ID in the McGraw Hill system, this will need to be added for existing users. Organization Administrators can manage existing users with the Import Users/Rosters tool in their Administrator Tools.
You can also modify users by editing the Student ID in Manage Users in Admin Tools.
If preferred, teachers can also edit student information to include the Student ID by editing the student profile from the class roster.
Districts Using Auto-Rostering
This includes districts that are Single Sign-On and Auto-Rostering and Direct Login and Auto-Rostering.
These districts are unable to edit the Student ID from Manage Users as this identifier can only be modified by the Automated Rostering Process. Depending on which type of rostering the district uses, the data may be received directly from the district’s Student Information System (SIS) or Learning Management System (LMS).
For OneRoster® districts, the "UserSourcedID” field received in the roster data is set as the Student ID.
Clever® District Users
Clever Rostering is supported by both McGraw Hill and NWEA.
To sign up to use Clever with NWEA, contact NWEA Partner Support.

Note: Clever Rostering does not have to be configured by both platforms for a successful pairing of NWEA and McGraw Hill; however, Student ID's must still match between platforms. If Clever is used by both McGraw Hill and NWEA, but the Student ID's do not match, contact NWEA Partner Support for further instruction.
