MAP Testing - Save the Date

On Wednesday, October 7 and 14, students in grades 6, 7, and 8 will take the Measure Academic Progress (MAP) assessment. The data from the MAP assessment will help schools and teachers measure where your child is starting the year academically. HCPSS intends to also give the assessment in winter and spring to measure how your child’s learning is progressing throughout the year. The MAP test does not affect grades, and the difficulty adjusts depending on how your child responds. ELA testing is on October 7 and Math is on October 14.  Both sessions will occur at 9:00 am, and students will test through their Homeroom class. Students in 8th grade GT ELA are exempt from testing; Algebra and Geometry students are also exempt.
