The thing about MAP scores is that they are not ability scores, they are achievement scores that are aligned to curriculum, so they can tell the school in a way that makes sense to them what concepts your child is ready to learn next and what they have already mastered. This can be really important when the school might not fully grasp the difference between say, an ability score at the 98th percentile and one at the 99.9th percentile.
NWEA MAP Edit: If MAP is not an option, curriculum compacting would be great if they will allow it.
