The State of Michigan is transitioning to a new test to replace the MEAP test. In the past, the MEAP test was administered in the fall. The M-Step will instead be administered in the spring. 7th graders will take the ELA portion of the test during the week of April 27th. Dearborn students will not be completing the test online; we will utilize that paper-pencil option for this year.
