Kindergarten has been taking the MAP tests this week and some results are in! First, here's what MAP is: The Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) Growth Test is a computer-based, adaptive assessment for K-12 students that measures academic achievement and growth in reading, language, math, and science. The test is administered at the beginning, middle, and end of the school year and has no time limit. MAP is designed to help educators understand a student's academic journey, identify strengths and weaknesses, and plan instruction accordingly.  Now, drum roll please... Every Kindergarten student met their year end goal for reading growth!
