Our teachers definitely have them.

Yes, as discussed upthread teachers have them-they also have the national norms because those are available. But they don't have the benchmarks against the region, and the printout I received at my PT conference was hard to interpret relative to the normal format they typically post on ParentVue in October after fall testing.

I mean, the MCPS averages are usually not very different than the national ones in my experience, maybe a few points off at most? Does that differ at higher grade levels?

And I actually liked the printout I got at our conference better than the usual one! It had more detail (including the specific numerical scores for subcategories rather than the Avg/HiAvg/Hi they usually give), and a neat chart showing the scores over time and where they fell as far as average/above average/etc. Is that the one you mean, or was it something different?

"A few points off" is a big difference, particularly for high scoring kids who want to see how they compare, for example, those applying to magnets in 8th grade.

The printout I got at my ES kid's PT conference lacked the benchmarks, so i didn't find it useful. I didn't see subcategory numerical scores either--perhaps your school prints out the scores differently.

Is there a testing office at MCPS? I went through the directory and couldn't figure out who manages this MAP stuff. Happy to write the person in charge and report back to DCUM if someone gives me a name.

It might be these guys? https://ww2.montgomeryschoolsmd.org/directory/directory_Boxoffice.aspx?processlevel=62501

Yes. Email the new supervisor: Laura_Marion@mcpsmd.org
