Student Achievement
Each year, students in all Illinois public schools participate in the state mandated Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR).
The IAR then reports the academic performance outcomes of students across the state and allows each district to compare outcomes for their students to outcomes for Illinois students as a whole.
The IAR assesses students in English Language Arts (ELA) and in Mathematics for all students in 3rd through 8th grade. We continue to strive for increasing the number of our students who are meeting and exceeding the challenging state grade level standards in all subject areas.
The results from Community Consolidated School District 62 show that our students have been steadily increasing in the percent who are meeting and exceeding proficiency.
Students in District 62 continue to outperform students in the state of Illinois as a whole.
