Merton Schools uses MAP testing as one measure of progress for academics for Math and Reading. We also use classroom assessments (all subject areas), Fountas and Pinnell (reading), and the state Forward exam throughout the year as well. The MAP testing dates for grade levels for the fall are as follows-

Monday, September 23rd- 5th grade Math, 7th and 8th grade Reading

If your child is ill or has an appointment, there will be times for make ups.

This year's PTO fundraiser is a homegrown event. We are raising money for improvements to the fitness room at the Intermediate School. Please see the flyer below for more information.
