DOTS Service Tracker

Below, you can find a list of updates to the DOTS system. It might be a good idea to check-in with the tracker immediately prior to your school’s testing session to ensure you are up-to-date on any DOTS updates or fixes. If there are no recent updates on the tracker, we have received no reports of DOTS operating incorrectly.
