We have received the results from the MEAP tests that were administered to the 7th and 8th grade students. Parents may pick up a report from the school office. Some questions have been shared with me as to the validity of comparing scores from St. Lorenz students with other schools who take the test. Let me simply say that although our faculty finds the MEAP assessment valuable in assessing the strengths and weaknesses of our curriculum, we do not as a school choose to adjust the chronological order that subject matter is taught to align with the MEAP tests. It continues to be our philosophy that allotting extra time in the fall to help our students prepare for these tests is not in the best academic interest of our students.
