MAP Testing

Luther North is proud to participate in the Northwest Evaluation Association’s Measures of Academic Progress® program.

Understanding each student’s academic level gives our teachers the power to help them excel. MAP computerized adaptive assessments are the tools that make it possible – providing us with the detailed information we need to build curriculum and meet their students’ needs, one child at a time.

Created by educators for educators, MAP assessments provide detailed, actionable data about where each child is on their unique learning path. MAP dynamically adapts to a student’s responses – as they take the test.

• Answer a question correctly and the test presents a more challenging item
• Miss a question, and MAP offers a simpler item

In this way, the test narrows in on a student’s learning level, engaging them with content that allows them to succeed.

Luther North currently administers MAP tests Freshman and Sophomore students twice a year in the areas of Reading, Mathematics and Language Usage.

The Parent Toolkit at the NWEA website contains valuable information for families about MAP tests. If you have any questions, please contact us.
