The State Board of Education approved Grade Level Content Expectations at the Board Meeting on December 11, 2007. The content expectations are now official, but MEAP testing will not be aligned to this document until at least the Fall of 2010. Until that time, the test will remain aligned to the revised Michigan Curriculum Framework of 2000.
