MAP®, short for Measures of Academic Progress®, is a nationally normed, computer-adaptive assessment tool for personalized learning. K-8* students are assessed 2-3 times a year in Reading, Math & Science. *Limited high school students may be assessed. See schedule by grade level below.
What information does MAP Growth provide?
- RIT Score: The RIT score reflects the student’s academic knowledge, skills, and abilities regardless of grade level. Scores over time can be compared to tell how much growth a student has made, similar to measuring height of a student over time.
- Instructional Areas: The RIT Score is broken into 3-4 instructional areas to help pinpoint the topic and skills your student is ready to learn as well as topics that might need a little support.
- Achievement Percentile - Shows how well your student performs in a subject compared to students in the same grade level with the same number of weeks of instruction.
- Growth Percentile – Shows the measure of your child's personal progress over a year or from one administration to another compared to students with the same starting RIT score.
