MEAP TEST LANSING, MICH. (AP) (wgvu) - FIFTH- AND SIXTH-GRADERS ACROSS MICHIGAN
WHO HAVE TAKEN THE WRITING PORTION OF THE MEAP TEST WILL HAVE TO
RETAKE IT BECAUSE A NEWSPAPER PUBLISHED INFORMATION ABOUT AN ESSAY
ON THE TEST.
IT'S UNCLEAR HOW MANY STUDENTS THAT AFFECTS.
MICHIGAN HAS 260-THOUSAND STUDENTS IN FIFTH AND SIXTH GRADES WHO
WERE SLATED TO TAKE THE TEST.
A REPORTER FOR THE JACKSON CITIZEN PATRIOT WAS ALLOWED TO
INTERVIEW JACKSON STUDENTS ABOUT THE TEST MONDAY, AND A STORY
APPEARED IN TUESDAY'S PAPER.
THAT PROMPTED THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT TO FLAG A SECURITY
BREACH. STUDENTS WILL NOT NEED TO RETAKE OTHER SECTIONS OF THE
WRITING TEST.
