I believe the teacher put their best foot forward but I was not impressed with the appearance and very disappointed with the Hickman Mills school district all together - lots of room for improvement - I have removed my children and moved to the NKC school district which I am very happy! The school also needs to enforce the uniform code or just do away with it al together - I don't understand the optional and then the kids that do wear a uniform get to go skating or receive special treats that other children don't get. Very wishy washy do it or don't do it but they need to make a stand.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Missouri used the Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in math and communication arts, and in grades 5 and 8 in science. The results for math, communication arts, and science are displayed on GreatSchools profiles. The MAP is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Missouri. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.
