MAP (Measurement of Academic Progress)
• All Students K through 10 (and some 11) are assessed in
Math and Reading at least two times per year.
• The assessment is online.
• Results are immediate.
• Parents receive cumulative results annually (over time).
• Individual Learning paths are created in COMPASS
LEARNING ODYSSEY.
These are the
most important
reasons to use
MAP!
• Some of
– Teachers
– Programs
– Grade levels
– Schools and
– District
• are addressed by analyzing MAP results
over time.

FINDINGS from MAP
• When compared to national normed MAP
data, our students enter our classes lower
in both MATH and READING as the years
progress.
• When compared to national normed MAP
data, our students grow more in both
MATH and READING.
This FALL (2014), our
1st and 2nd grade
students’ mean(avg)
READING RIT scores
are the same as the
nationally normed RIT
score!
