Good school academically. Very intolerant of other racial groups. Hispanics are going to be 40% of the population very soon. The world is changing, these kids will not always be among thesame racial group, how will they cope?

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.
