Holy Rosary Data & Testing Information
Holy Rosary School strives to provide a high quality academic environment for the students that attend our school. With that in mind, we assess the students on a regular basis to provide differentiated instruction. We work hard to meet the students where they are, providing what they need. Below are some of the assessments we use and how we use the data that is collected from those assessments.

Measures of Academic Progress (MAP)
"Measures of Academic Progress® (MAP®) are K – 12 interim assessments that measure growth, project proficiency on high-stakes tests, and inform how educators differentiate instruction, evaluate programs, and structure curriculum.
Computer adaptive MAP assessments reveal precisely which academic skills and concepts the student has acquired and what they’re ready to learn. MAP assessments are grade independent and adapt to each student’s instructional level. Every item on a MAP assessment is anchored to a vertically aligned equal interval scale, called the RIT scale for Rasch UnIT—a stable measurement, like inches on a ruler, that covers all grades.
And because the measurement is reliable and accurate, RIT scores serve as an essential data point in a student’s learning plan; educators can see their precise learning level and respond accordingly."
