NAEP

The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), often referred to as "the Nation's Report Card," is the only nationally representative and continuing assessment of what America's students know and can do in various subjects. Its two major goals are to measure student achievement and to report change in performance over time. NAEP provides results for the nation as a whole in a variety of subjects and for the states individually in mathematics, reading, science, and writing.

MAP-A

The Missouri Assessment Program-Alternate (MAP-A) is administered to students who are determined to qualify by the district Individual Education Program (IEP) team, using the DESE eligibility criteria. No student may be tested outside of the assigned grade level. Missouri uses the Instructionally Embedded assessment model for ELA and math; and the Year End assessment model for science.
