NWEA Testing starts Monday, September 30, 2024.
September 30, 2024
Dear Parents/Guardians,
Students will be taking the Northwest Evaluation Association Measure of Academic Progress Assessment (NWEA, MAP) over the next week. The computerized assessment measures student growth and achievement in Math, Language, and Reading.. The test will be administered three times this year: Fall, Winter, & Spring. This allows us to closely monitor student growth and measure academic progress.
When used with classroom work, teacher observation, and district Common Assessments, these scores provide a standardized measure to compare growth to other students across the country and also to get a fuller picture of each child as a learner. The MAP results provide valuable growth target results and indicate student performance on grade-level standards.
Results will be reviewed with parents/guardians as part of our student conferences in November. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
Sincerely,
Erin Messer
Principal
