Reminder, MAP testing begins tomorrow, April 30th, and runs through May 10 across the district. The Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) includes a set of yearly standards-based assessments that measure specific skills defined for each grade or content, designed to measure students’ progress toward mastery in them. Please make sure your child is in attendance each day, gets a good nights sleep, and eats a nutritious breakfast. If you have a JH/HS student they will need a fully charged IPAD and corded headphones if possible. Lastly, let them know they will ROCK their tests each morning before they leave!
