Student Progress Report
We love the Student Progress Report to share with families and that is has all of a student's results they have over the years with %iles. We print these and send home to families in K-5 and share the PDF 6th grade and up. This same data in not included in the Family Report. It is also helpful these can be produced in grade level batches by building.

For each student, I used to be able to see the overall RIT score and the score for each individually tested area on one of your reports. It told me the RIT score for each individual area and whether it was high, hiavg, avg, loavg, or low. I now only have access to this information for their overall score, but I can no longer find it for the individual areas of testing. So I, myself, don't even know what a RIT of 217 in literary text: key ideas and details even means. Is it hiavg? Is it avg? If you are going to steal the report away, then you at least need to provide us a key so we can translate your data into meaningful, useful information.
And why in the world don't you break the data down into individual standards? Key ideas and details includes three individual learning standards. I have no idea which standards the student knows or if there is one of the three in particular that is causing a problem. Your reports are convoluted an unhelpful.

This is critical for our work and our parents really appreciate that comparison data to our district RIT. This is going to be a huge lift for me to provide this information to families if it does not populate automatically.

Agreed 100%. The student progress report is super easy to read for the parents, and super helpful for the school to show the students K-12 progress in our school.

The Student Progress report allows you to select growth terms you want shown. We always use fall to spring goals for reporting, even though we test during winter. We set goals in the fall and don't want those goals to change on the final report. The student profile report and the family report do not allow you to select which growth terms will be displayed. If we replace the student progress report with either of these (Student Profile or Family report) we need to be able to choose the growth term.

Essential report for my job in admissions testing. Please don't retire it.

Please do not discontinue the "Student Progress" report. It is ideal as it shows percentile changes over time, it is one page, and it can be printed by grade level. The new reports can only be printed by class and the student profile report is 4 pages with unnecessary data.

WE LOVE student progress report! It is super straight-forward for parents to see their kids' growth across the years, and easy to read for the parents.

The student progress report serves several crucial purposes:
It provides a comprehensive summary of a student's progress over time, saving significant time compared to locating this information in other reports.
It offers a quick snapshot that allows for easy data visualisation and pattern identification. This makes it quick and relevant for parents without overkill with jargon and data that is not necessary for them to see but is relevant for us as educators to use as a tracking tool.
Parents find it easier to understand their child's performance trends and how they compare to the global norm when presented in this format.
It is also really handy to have the RIT break down for each of the area across reading and maths. We use this as a guide with students and parents to set goals for the next term/semester.
Reconsider retiring this report. Evidence from this forum shows that it is a valuable tool.

We have been using MAP Growth as our universal screener for more than 10 years. As a school psychologist, we regularly use the data MAP Growth gives us, mostly at the school and individual level. One of the reports we use most often is the Student Progress Report. The longitudinal data we get from that report is an integral and invaluable part of our student assessments, whether it be developing a reading intervention plan or conducting a psychoeducational assessment. The report makes it easy to see trends, both positive and negative, over time and it is easy to explain to parents. Now that we are adopting MAP Reading Fluency and the Dyslexia Screener, we were wondering if there will be a Student Progress Report equivalent?
Thank you. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi Victoria,
I called NWEA customer support with a concern about the Student Progress Report being retired (case #02920032) and spoke to Luis, who gave me your email address.
I currently use the Student Progress Report because I can download a class set of individual PDFs that I can in turn upload to each student's record in our student information system.
On the NWEA website, it says that the Student Profile Report replaces the Student Progress Report. But it appears to me that you can only select one student at a time. That would mean that I would have to manually choose and print the Student Profile Report for every student in our school and then manually upload one at a time this report to each student record in our SIS. Luis showed me a way to print the Student Profile Report for an entire class, but it puts all student scores on one PDF instead of individual PDFs.
Can you either continue to make the Student Progress Report available to us or add the individual student PDF functionality to the Student Profile Report?
Thank you!

Please keep this. It's a time saver when explaining growth of the student over time.

The Student Progress Report data is the most critical data report that we use as school psychologists. It is a user friendly report that details growth on academic functioning over time, including percentiles, growth over the course of the year, etc. Without this report, this data would be hard to access. Please keep this!!!!!!!!

Please keep this report. It is my go to when screening for a special education evaluation. It is vital to the School Psychologist of any school system. The national percentiles align so nicely with the assessment tools I use.

I use this multiple times a day at work. Please do not remove this feature. It is super useful for our school district!
