The Measures of Academic Progress Growth Test (MAP) is designed to measure students’ readiness for learning specific content and skills and academic growth over time. 

• MAP results are used by teachers to assist students in setting growth goals, to differentiate instruction based on students' strengths/needs and to monitor students' progress toward their growth goals throughout the year.

• MAP results are used by building administrators to identify the knowledge and skill levels of students in a classroom or grade and to plan for professional development based on patterns in instructional strengths and needs.

• MAP results are used by central office staff to identify program strengths and needs and to assess the implementation and impact of LCPS initiatives.
