Test Scores
Saint Thomas administers the MAPTM (Measures of Academic Progress) Standardized Tests twice yearly to students in grades 2-8. Testing occurs in October and April/May. These tests help us learn how Saint Thomas is performing as a school. MAPTM test results help our teachers identify a student’s strengths and their challenges. We use the data to identify students who need targeted intervention, as well as students who are ready for challenges and our Enrichment program. Check out our 2024 Spring MAP scores. For more information about these tests, visit NWEA (Northwest Evaluation Association).
