iLEAD ANTELOPE VALLEY NEWS & EVENTS
Dear Families,
We hope you all had an inspiring week and are ready to jump back into the learning adventure!
This week, all learners in grades K-8 will complete our internal MAP assessment. The MAP assessment isn’t just a test; it’s a powerful tool that helps us individualize learning for every child. Testing will take place via Zoom during your learner’s regularly scheduled synchronous instruction.
If you have any questions for our team, please don’t hesitate to reach out to 661-429-3757 or info.exploration@ileadav.org. And be sure to follow us on Facebook and Instagram to stay connected!
With gratitude,
Terri Budke
iLEAD AV Exploration Director
