The administrators treat the children as little 'people' with opinions & thoughts all their own. There is a feeling of mutual respect on the part of teachers & administrators, as well as with the kids. The teachers strive to make learning fun & interesting to the kids & their zest for learning the material is evident.

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.
