Academic Testing at T. H. Rogers

Our students participate in two key assessments to monitor academic growth and readiness:

• NWEA MAP Growth: Adaptive interim assessment to track student progress across the year.
• STAAR: State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness—our annual statewide accountability test.

📈 NWEA MAP Growth

NWEA MAP is a growth-based, adaptive assessment used district-wide.

📘 STAAR – Statewide Accountability

STAAR is administered annually in grades 3–8 and includes end-of-course exams in Algebra I and other subjects. TA provides a wealth of resources for preparation and practice.

Why It Matters

These assessments inform instructional strategies, benchmark progress, and reflect readiness. MAP Growth allows for goal-setting and data-driven instruction, while STAAR outcomes contribute to district accountability ratings.
