2021-22 Calendar Change Reminder
As a reminder, District 204’s 2021-22 school year calendar was amended by the Board of Education on October 18, 2021.
Because the state's primary election had initially been scheduled for March 15, that day was originally listed in our calendar as a No School day.
With the primary election now rescheduled to June, March 15 will be a regular day of attendance.
The full 2021-22 calendar PDF can be found here.
ISA Science Assessments - 5th Grade Only
Dear Parent(s) or Guardian(s):
During the current academic year, fifth and eighth grade students will be administered the Illinois Science Assessment (ISA) as mandated by the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) and United States Department of Education. This assessment is designed to assess the Next Generation Science Standards which were adopted by ISBE in 2014; see https://www.isbe.net/Pages/Illinois-Science-Assessment.aspx for additional information. The ISA elementary and middle school testing window will be from March 16 to April 22, 2022.
The ISA will be administered through an online platform; estimated testing time is approximately three hours. This assessment will consist of reading passages/scenarios with item types including multiple-choice, multiple-select and constructed response. Assessment content will include physical science, life science, earth/space science and engineering.
Schools will communicate additional information before the testing date. If you have additional questions regarding the ISA, please contact your school’s principal.
Regards, Charles Sprandel
Executive Director of Research and Assessment Indian Prairie Community Unit School District 204
