Ewing grade school is awesome! Teachers care about students - academically, and also personally. Since it is a small school, problems do NOT go unnoticed and they practice prevention! My daughter is very happy at this school.

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.
