Fall MAP Scores

Good Morning! 
I am in the process of sending individual emails to you regarding your child's fall MAP scores at NPES. The report you receive (as a PDF) is the report that will be shared with BEC if you have given me permission to do so. 
NWEA MAP released a new norming study (2015 norms) this year. The percentiles in this study are slightly higher than the previous one (2011 norms). It continues to be unclear which norms CPS will use to get rubric totals for our students. The norms determine the percentiles that are given. 

Last year, when the 8th graders had to take the test for CPS in the fall, CPS used the 2011 spring of 7th grade norms to determine percentiles. I'm not sure if they will do this again since our kids are taking the test so late in the fall. Because of this, I am sending you results based on the 2011 norms. Remember that 2015 norms are slightly higher. 

I am sorry that this appears to be clear as mud! If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask. Thank you!
