MEAP

Although preparation for the MEAP Test takes place at each grade level K-12, it is imperative that our students receive specific preparation.  Fifth graders are required by the State of Michigan to take three MEAP Tests in the areas of Science, English Language Arts and Math.  Sixth graders take three MEAP tests in the areas of Social Studies, English Language Arts, and Math.  In addition to the curricular focus, we also spend time throughout the year teaching metacognition and test taking strategies.  The MEAP testing window is in October each year.
