I feel very fortunate to be part of this great school district. Winston Campus has a wonderful and supportive staff. Both of my children are thriving in an excellent environment. The principal and vice principal are always looking out for the welfare of the students. Winston has a wonderful PTA and outstanding parent involvement.

5 star school! Every teacher my children have had amaze me every year. Each with personal contact and easy to get a hold of almost 24 hours a day. The principal is strict and a very good guy. Same with the assistant principal. They know the name of every child in the school and are outside with the children every morning and afternoon. Excellent parents and staff and community all around.

Winston Campus Elementary is totally dedicated to student achievement and helping students through positive behavior management! The teachers are very qualified and care greatly about the success of their students. Winston is a No Excuses University School that gives students the belief that they can succeed and go to college!

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.
