Statewide test results: 10 percent of Iles failed English language arts

Scores16

About 90 percent of Iles Elementary School students passed annual English language arts assessments in 2018 and 10 percent of students failed, according to a Sangamon Sun analysis of the latest Illinois schools report card.

The Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers, or PARCC, is administered to third- through eighth-graders in Illinois, testing them in reading and math based on Common Core standards.

According to Iles Elementary School English language scores, about 62 percent met expectations and 28 percent exceeded them. Students whose results are in either category are considered to be most ready to move on to the next level and are most prepared for college or work.

Another 8 percent approached expectations, while 2 percent partially met expectations and none did not meet them. Students who scored in these categories are not ready for the next level of schooling, according to the test.

Test results at Iles Elementary School, which enrolled 393 students in 2018, surpassed state averages.

Statewide, 37 percent of students passed the test and 63 percent failed.

Of students statewide who passed, only six percent 'exceeded' expectations.
