It's March! For those of us at ICA that means melting snow, growing flowers, and the spring achievement testing season!
ICA uses the Measure of Academic Progress (MAP) test through the Northwest Evaluation Association for our achievement testing. The MAP test is a computerized, adaptive test with three sections: language arts, reading, and math. This year we are utilizing a version of the MAP test that is not aligned to the Common Core State Standards.
All full-time ICA students in grades 3 through 10 are required to take the MAP test two times per year, usually in the fall and the spring. Part-time students may take the test for a small fee, but testing is not required. The spring MAP testing window is open through June 12.
