Student Assessment
The Assessment Division of the Illinois State Board of Education is responsible for developing and administering tests that measure the performance of students and schools against the Illinois Learning Standards. The state assessment scores are used to measure adequate yearly progress (AYP) for all public schools. All students' scores are part of the AYP measure, including students with disabilities and limited English proficiency.

Note: If a test does not display, a pop-up blocker may be preventing it from opening and you may need to instruct the pop-up blocker to allow access to these tests. If you get "access denied," or "page not found" messages, it may mean that tight security at your school or district is preventing access. Contact your technical support and have them try to access these tests. Contact support@metalogic1.com as needed for assistance.
