I love Attea's pride in education, activities, and a healthy learning environment.

I think this is an excellent school with great teachers and curriculum that keeps most everyone challenged. The only problem might be 7th grade algebra (advanced) class sizes. But they are working on it.

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.
