MAP Testing
At St. Ambrose Catholic School, students in grades 3-8 complete the MAP test (Measure of Academic Progress) twice a year in the Fall and Spring. In the Diocese of Springfield, schools are required to test only once a year in the Spring, but most schools choose to complete the second test in the Fall. Students are tested in Reading, Math, Science, and Language Usage.
SPRING 2025 MAP RESULTS
The group results are in for the 2024-2025 Spring MAP testing. Our scores at St. Ambrose were strong, exceeding State and Diocesan averages in most categories. Please see the included results.
The first button directs you to summaries by discipline displaying where each of our classes fell in national percentile achievement rankings for each of the 4 tests. Please remember national percentile rankings show where a class or individual is in comparison to the nation. A class or individual in the 55th percentile scored better than 54 percent of those classes or individuals that completed testing.
The next several buttons direct you to each Grade Level where results are broken down by test subject. With these scores you will see a series of data points listed. The first shows the number of students that completed the test. The next score shows “Mean RIT Score,” this is our St. Ambrose average for that grade level. You will also see the “District Grade Level Mean,” this is the average score for that grade level in the Springfield Diocese. Additionally you will see the “Grade Level Mean,” this is the average for the nation.
