Reading and math performance for Illinois Valley students must be measured through school- and district-level 2026 report-card results.

Key takeaways
Illinois Valley students’ performance in reading and math can be assessed only through the results reported for the area’s individual schools and districts. Those results are needed to determine whether students are meeting grade-level expectations in either subject.
A single regional label would not answer the question for every student. Reading and math performance can be reviewed by school or district, allowing families and residents to see how students are doing in each part of the Illinois Valley.
The key figures will be the reading and math results attached to Illinois Valley schools and districts in the 2026 school report cards. Those figures will provide the basis for determining whether students are performing at grade level.
