What is The Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR)?
Our students take federally required assessments every spring. These assessments help us understand how our students are growing academically, compared to their peers across the state. The Illinois Assessment of Readiness is a federally required measure of student mastery of the Illinois Learning Standards in English language arts and mathematics in grades 3 through 8, and their readiness for what’s next. The Illinois Assessment of Readiness will change over the next few years, as the state works to make it more useful to schools and families. Please take a moment to learn more about the IAR below:
