NWEA

This year your child will take a MAP® Growth™ test from NWEA® on their computer three times (Fall, Winter and Spring) in both Language Arts and Math as they did last year.  MAP Growth scores help teachers check student performance by measuring achievement and growth. Teachers use results to tailor classroom lessons and set goals for students.

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.  Following each testing period, you will receive a Family Report showing a summary of how your child is performing academically.
