MAP Testing Schedule

Math MAP October 7, 8, and 10

Reading MAP October 21, 22, 23

Oakland Mills Middle School students will participate in the Fall administration of the Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) assessments in reading and mathematics.  Students will be taking the assessment through their ELA and Math classes.  If a student is absent or needs additional time beyond the testing schedule, make up sessions will be arranged.  The MAP assessments measure a student’s growth over time in reading and mathematics.  MAP assessments let teachers know where a student’s strengths are and if help is needed in specific instructional areas.  Teachers use this information, along with the results of classroom assessments, and their own observation of student performance, to help guide classroom instruction.  After the test administration, you will receive information about your child’s score.  Students exempt from Math MAP are Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II students.  Students exempt from Reading MAP are 8th Grade GT ELA students.  If you have any additional questions, please see the website at http://www.hcpss.org/academics/mapinfo.shtml.
