I am aparent of a soon to be 1st grader, and I am completely please with the way the school is being runned. Everyone seems to be on the same page in the same book. I just want to say thank you to the administration team as well as the volunteers. This school welcomed me and family with open arms and made placing my baby in school easy as pie. and again I want to thank especially Ms McCoy.

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.
