Hello, John,

Missouri needs assistance with an independent alignment study of newly developed assessments aligned to new grade- and course-level expectations. We are in the process of developing the following for our Missouri Assessment Program (MAP):

MAP Grade-Level

Grades 3 – 8 in mathematics and English language arts (first operational administration in spring 2018)

Grades 5 and 8 in science (census field test in spring 2018, first operational administration in spring 2019)

MAP End-of-Course (EOC)

Algebra I, algebra II, geometry (first operational administration in fall 2017)

English II, English I (first operational administration in fall 2017)

Biology, physical science (census field test begins fall 2017, first operational administration in fall 2018)

I’m interested in discussing options for the alignment work. Would you have time to talk today or tomorrow?

Thanks,

Lisa
