Normally in February, we think of matters of the heart, but at HMS we think of matters of the mind. Why you may ask? February means there are only two short months until Milestone testing and MAP, our benchmark, is conducted during this time. What can you do to help your learner prepare? Take a look at your learner's progress report. Is he/she struggling in a certain class? Are they attending SIEP? Does your child qualify for Title I? Does he/she study at home? Online help is available to families of Georgia learners. One such site allows learners to experience the Milestone. By going to Georgia's Department of Education Experience Online Testing, your learner can see how the test is prior to taking. Another web resource is Accuteach. This site offers a variety of practice resources. Share your concerns and questions here during the month of February so we can help you and your learner with Matters of the Mind.
