The sixth grade block teachers at South Middle School have stopped teaching social studies for the time being to use that hour to prepare for the MAP test.

“We want to make sure that the students are fully prepared for whatever may appear on the MAP,” said Kim Frencken, sixth grade block teacher. The teachers are feeling comfortable about using the social studies time to prepare the sixth grade students for the MAP.

“We would like the students to feel confident that they will do well on the MAP,” said Lisa Simmons, sixth grade block teacher.
