Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) Testing: Sept. 23 - Oct. 18
Students in grades 1-11 will take part in MAP Growth testing from NWEA on a district-provided device. MAP Growth scores help teachers check student performance by measuring achievement and growth. Teachers will use those results to tailor classroom lessons and set student goals.
MAP Growth tests are unique and adapt to your child’s responses to measure your child’s knowledge. If your child answers a question correctly, the next question is more challenging. If they answer incorrectly, the next one is easier. These results will provide a more complete picture of where your child is on their learning journey— regardless of whether they are on, above, or below their grade level.
Since MAP Growth tests provide immediate and accurate information about your child’s learning, it’s easy for teachers to identify students with similar scores in similar skills and topics and then plan instruction accordingly.
MAP Growth reports also provide typical growth data for students in the same grade and subject with the same starting performance level.
We are truly excited to focus on your child’s individual growth and achievement. For more information about MAP Growth, visit NWEA.org/familytoolkit.
