Black Hawk - New ISAT Cut Scores
The Illinois State Board of Education raised the performance levels of the Illinois Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) for elementary and middle schools. The new performance levels will align with the more rigorous Common Core State Standards but will cause a decline in the number of students who meet or exceed standards in 2013. This means there is a possibility that students that have met or exceeded in the past on the ISAT will not this year. This drop is a result of raising expectations, not a reflection of student or teacher performance. Click on New ISAT Cut Scores for more information.
