No Fall MAP report on ParentVue yet?

[Anonymous]

Had a parent teacher conference today. Got a hard copy printout of my kid’s map scores with national norms listed but not the local norms.

Teacher had no idea why the test scores were so delayed in being posted on ParentVue-said the school has had them “for ages”.

They don't want people to see the local norms.

It's obvious that is what it is.

Not to be dense, but why wouldn’t they want people to see the local norms?

I don’t think there are delays because MCPS is doctoring data they don’t like. I think it’s probably something far less sinister but more incompetent

Because it would reflect poorly on MCPS for the local norms to be below national norms.

Why else would the teachers hand out the printouts with national norms only, when in the past they always sent home the print out with national and local norms?

It would look kind of weird to have had the same MAP testing report for a decade plus (I've had the same format in parentvue since my kid started K), and suddenly to discontinue it for Fall 2025. My guess (and I do not work for MCPS) was that they were having a hard time with analyzing the data for the new norms or something...but not that all we were going to have going forward are these strange hard copy reports that don't even show percentiles.

Because, as we've already been told, there is a glitch with NWEA and the usual reports cannot be generated right now?

A glitch with NWEA that only affects MCPS? My friends in HoCo have their MAP reports.

Just checked. Still nothing.

Still not up. Will it ever be posted? Pathetic.

DCPS has their fall map reports distributed. This is definitely a MCPS thing

I haven't been paying very close attention to their communications lately because I can't stand the BS, but I'm flabbergasted that it appears they still haven't acknowledged the delay of sharing MAP scores in any way.

Is there something I missed? Please tell me I missed something.

(I know I can reach out to teachers, and I have. It's not my kids I'm worried about. I just can't believe that the only established method of communicating these scores that I can remember since my 14 yr old starting this test was so blatantly ignored without any communication.)

When you have an IEP meeting, you get a huge list of student metrics, including MAP scores for the current season even the report isn't released yet. It's obviously a computer generated list of every number the school has on the kid.
Why can't all parents download that list at any time from ParentVue?
