Hollywood Elementary is an excellent school all the way around. The quality of the academic programs is exceptional, and the Principal and teachers are outstanding. It's a small school, which gives much attention to the individual student. Parents are very involved, and there are a plethora of special programs for children to get involved in including foreign language classes, cultural arts programs, and many extracurricular activities.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Illinois used the Illinois Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in reading and math, and in grades 4 and 7 in science. The ISAT is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Illinois. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
