MAP TESTING
Lisbon will administer the Measured Academic Progress (MAP) assessment to all students in 1st through 5th grades in Reading and Math between September 18 - October 6. The data from the MAP assessment will help schools and teachers measure your student’s academic progress. The MAP test does not affect grades and the difficulty adjusts depending on how your child responds. The test is a computer-adaptive test, which means the test automatically adjusts the difficulty level depending on how your child responds to test questions. It is normal for students to only answer about half the questions correctly. Please check with students to see if they need headphones to use at school. The HCPSS website contains detailed information about MAP testing here. If you have questions about MAP testing, please contact Bradley Scobie at bradley_scobie@hcpss.org.
