📘 What is MAP Growth Testing? 📘 Understanding progress is essential to every student’s success, and MAP Growth Testing is here to help! Unlike traditional exams, MAP Growth is a computer-adaptive test that customizes questions to each student’s level, measuring their true academic abilities. 📊 With MAP Growth, we’re able to better support every student on their unique learning journey.

This year, AHSS will be administering MAP Growth Tests – a globally trusted assessment tool used in over 9,500 schools worldwide. How our students will benefit: ✔️ Personalized Insights: MAP Growth helps us understand each student’s strengths and areas for improvement. ✔️ Progress Over Time: Testing twice (in November and May) allows us to track progress within the school year. ✔️ Tailored Learning: Teachers use the results to adjust classroom lessons, ensuring focused support for every student. MAP Growth is just one more way we’re committed to making sure your child reaches their full potential! 🌟

Some compliments come easily, while others are harder to express. 💬 Our students reflected on the most emotional or challenging compliments they wanted to share and wrote them down in class. It’s in these moments of vulnerability that true connections are made. 🤝 During Compliment Week, they discovered the profound impact their words can have on others and how a simple note of kindness can brighten someone's entire day. 🤗
