Academic Learning & Achievement

Is my child learning?

Illinois checks on every student's learning each year — in reading and math in grades 3-8, and with the SAT in high school. Here is how students at this school are doing, year by year, exactly as CPS and the state publish it.

How students are doing

PSAT and SAT results.

Most Illinois high schoolers take the PSAT in 9th and 10th grade and the SAT in 11th. Colleges see these scores, and they are one of the clearest signals of readiness for life after high school.

College entrance exams

ACT results.

Starting in SY2024-25, Illinois 11th graders take the ACT instead of the SAT. Each subject is scored out of 36.

Staying on track

On track for what comes next.

CPS flags early — by attendance, grades and course credits — whether each student is on track for the next step. These are the school's published on-track rates for all students combined.

Finishing high school

Graduation, four years out.

Of the students who started 9th grade together four years earlier, the share who earned a diploma.

Source

Proficiency results (IAR, formerly PARCC) and PSAT/SAT results from CPS and ISBE public assessment reports. Student growth percentile from ISBE Illinois Student Growth reports. On-track, graduation and English Learner rates from the school's CPS School Profile.

Coverage
