About the Tests
- In 2006-2007 Missouri used the Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) to test students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in
math and in grades 3 through 8 and 11 in communication arts.
- 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.
