Dear St. Teresa of Avila Parents & Students,
Over the next two weeks, our students will be taking the winter NWEA MAP (Measure of Academic
Progress) assessments in math and reading. This tests allows us to measure growth and learning throughout
the year, and provides us with valuable information regarding student strengths, areas for growth, and next
steps for instructional support.
There is nothing specific that your student needs to study or review to prepare for the test, but please make
sure your child gets a good night's rest the night before the test, eats a healthy breakfast before
testing, and arrives to school ON TIME. Please encourage your student to give their best effort and
take their time on this test. If students show up late, miss test dates, or rush through the test, it delays our
ability to translate the results into action steps that help your child.
Please see the calendar below for your child’s testing days and start times. If you have questions about the
test, please call your child’s teacher or the office.
Thank you,
Sharon Willmes
