Border Star Montessori

Border Star Montessori students began MAP testing today. The tests will run through this week with the final testing day this Friday, April 20th.

A good night’s sleep, a healthy breakfast and on-time attendance will ensure your child has a productive day.

As a Montessori student, some children will be more familiar with Montessori terms they use in everyday lessons than traditional instruction. Going over some of the terms found in the MAP tests can also help your child anticipate terminology that may seem new to them.

If you have any questions regarding the tests, feel free to call Border Star Montessori’s counselor, Ms. Green, at 816.418.5171.
