As many of you know, we are anxiously awaiting information from CPS regarding the requirements for the Selective Enrollment process for the current 7th graders. Until we are notified otherwise, we are acting under the assumption that the current 7th graders will need to register with CPS to take the MAP reading and math tests at CPS sometime in May. We have arranged test prep classes through BEC based on that assumption.
Classes will be held at the BEC offices (Ravenswood and Sunnyside) from March 9 through April 27th (excluding April 6 for Spring Break) on Mondays from 4:00 to 5:30. (The 8th graders had a similar schedule in the fall and seemed to enjoy the break from 3:30-4:00 to walk to BEC, get some fresh air, and let off some steam before the 1 1/2 hour prep session.) Sessions can be purchased individually or as a whole package by credit card or check in advance when you register through BEC. Each session will cost $60 and will focus on the various sections of the test (BEC can provide specifics regarding the section of the test to be covered) with the schedule as follows:
3/9 math
3/16 math
3/23 math
3/30 reading
4/6 off spring break
4/13 reading
4/20 reading
4/27 general MAP test-taking strategies
