Dear St. Andrew Catholic School Families,

1 Dear St. Andrew Catholic School Families, Our scholars at St. Andrew Catholic will continue taking the MAP Growth test from NWEA on a computer. We give students MAP Growth tests to determine their instructional level and to measure academic growth throughout the school year (and from year to year). MAP Growth tests are unique in that they adapt to your child s level of learning. If your child answers a question correctly, the next question is more challenging. If they answer incorrectly, the next one is easier. This results in a detailed picture of what your child knows and is ready to learn whether it is on, above, or below their grade level. Since MAP Growth tests provide immediate and accurate information about your child is learning, it is easy for teachers to identify students with similar scores that are generally ready for instruction in similar skills and topics, and then plan instruction accordingly. MAP Growth reports also provide typical growth data for students who are in the same grade, subject, and have the same starting performance level. Following each testing period, you will receive a report showing your child s growth, which you can review with your child s teacher for more insight. We are truly excited to focus on your child s individual growth and achievement. For more information about the MAP Growth test, visit: NWEA.org/Parent-Toolkit. Blessings, Latrina Peters-Gipson Principal St. Andrew Catholic School 877 N. Hastings Street, Orlando, FL (407) standrewcatholicschool.org
