The DragonFly official’s platform can be found at https://www.dragonflymax.com/.

All MPSSAA requirements must be completed to gain access to NFHS exam portal.
Officials will need to sign into their Dragonfly account, go to their MPSSAA requirements and click on the exam requirement (see below). This will take you directly to the NFHS exam system.

In order to work interscholastic contests, including regional playoff contests, and earn certification, each official will have a maximum of five attempts to achieve a passing score of 75 percent (38 correct out of 50). An 85 percent (43 out of 50) minimum score is required for a post-season state tournament assignment.
