Standardized Assessments for the 2019 – 2020 School Year
High Schools Updates
- AP testing is not changing, but the registration process is being overhauled. Students will now “join” a course within their College Board account at the beginning of the school year. Then, students will have until the end of October to decide to take an AP test (and will register within their College Board account). Payment will still be provided to the school and that process will be communicated in early Fall. More about the online process and early registration will be communicated as more becomes available. Please visit College Board for more information.
- The Illinois Science Assessment (ISA) in high schools has previously been given to students in Biology. However, to meet with federal guidelines, the ISA will now be given to juniors (regardless of the science course a student is taking).
