Principal's Message

Middle of Year (MOY) testing has been going great!!!

Students are taking assessments in the areas of Reading and Math just like at the beginning of the year to determine growth and identify strengths and areas of opportunity for our students. These results will directly reflect the growth seen from the Beginning of the year to now!

We love this season because we get a chance to celebrate and reward our students for their growth and academic achievement. Over the course of the testing window we will open our "MAP Store" where our students will shop for rewards based on their MOY results.

Students will earn prizes for meeting their growth goal (CGI) or obtaining on or above grade level using the cut points included below!!

K-2 students will take their mClass assessment in Reading and will visit the MAP store for obtaining On or Above Level as their composite as well as for jumping a threshold!

PK Students will take their Circle Assessment and will visit the MAP store for earning on Target in the areas of Letter Names and Foundational Math.
