The PARCC test in Illinois has been replaced by the The Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) for students in grades 3-8. The computer adaptive assessment measures the same Illinois Learning Standards test content and mimics the format as its predecessor while reducing testing time by one-third. Please click here to access a parent letter and learn more from CPS.
We will begin IAR testing in your child's homeroom Monday, April 1st from 8-11 AM and it will continue until Wednesday, April 3rd. Please help make sure that your child arrives to school each day on time and is well rested. Thank You!
