MAP Testing: Weeks 6&7

As you know, MAP testing will start this week for students in Grades 3-10.  All times have been scheduled and communicated to relevant teachers, along with accommodations for relevant students.

Please note that for students who are taking the test in a separate location or who have a reader, they may arrive late to their next class.

I’ve attached the schedule for Week 6 here for your reference, as well as accommodation details.

A huge thanks to teachers who have scheduled this in to English and Maths classes, attended MAP training sessions, and who are supporting students as readers or small group supervisors!

A massive thanks to Joe and Cindy and ICT for their tech support!

Any questions, please stop by.
