CCSD93 strives to maximize the academic, social & emotional potential of each student.
Dear Friend of CCSD93,
Messages From 
Superintendent Hill: 
Starting Monday, over the course of two weeks, students in grades 5 and 8 will take the Illinois Science Assessment. Throughout the two weeks immediately following spring break, students in grades 3 through 8 will take the Illinois Assessment of Readiness. While students should not feel any pressure in taking these assessments, we strongly encourage families to help their child be prepared to do their best. If you have a child in any of these grade levels, please ensure your child is present on time on testing days and that they’ve had a good night’s sleep and nutritious breakfast prior to testing.  
For more information about these state assessments, read this letter.
