Meeting Michigan’s goals with MAP Growth
Nearly 60% of school districts in Michigan rely on MAP Growth to empower educators, meet diverse learning needs, and improve student performance.
The Michigan Department of Education (MDE) has thoroughly evaluated MAP Growth across several categories including content alignment, accessibility, security, training, and more, and recommended it as an option for state benchmark assessment. MAP Growth is also approved by MDE for Initial and Extensive assessment as part of the state’s Early Literacy Initiative.
