MEAP Update

Day one of the MEAP is behind us and I can take a slight breath. It went very smoothly, which from my standpoint is always my biggest worry. It's a tad of a tetris game to fit all the grade levels and parts into a testing window. A typical MEAP day will consist of all three grades taking a test that can have more than one part. The different grade level parts may or may not have the same "suggested" recommended time. The MEAP is not a timed test which adds to puzzle. Our two counselors, Vikki Patterson and Sandy Rutledge along with our building Teacher Consultant, Sue Schweihofer have put countless hours into organizing, sorting and arranging schedules to make this all work. Without them I'd be headed toward a nervous breakdown. With that said, all in all, the kids did great. Three more test days then we get to wait on the results to hopefully find out what we already know...that the students at SCMS are among the best in the state.
