MEAP-Access is a new assessment for the Fall 2009 test cycle. MEAP-Access is intended to bridge the gap between the MI-Access assessments and the Michigan Educational Assessment Program (MEAP) for students with disabilities. MEAP-Access is based on grade level content expectations and will assess REading/Writing and Mathematics for students in grades 3-8.

MEAP-Access was developed through a collaboration of MDE offices and teams of Michigan educators and stakeholders familiar with the population and content being assessed.
