About the Tests
- In 2007-2008 Missouri used the Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in math, in grades 3 through 8 and 11 in communication arts, and in grades 5, 8 and 11 in science.
- The results for math and communication arts are displayed on GreatSchools profiles.
- The MAP is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for
each grade by the state of Missouri.
- The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.
