Scores17

About 23 percent of Villa Grove Junior High School students passed annual English language arts assessments in 2018 and 77 percent of students failed, according to a East Central Reporter analysis of the latest Illinois schools report card.

The Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers, or PARCC, is administered to third- through eighth-graders in Illinois, testing them in reading and math based on Common Core standards.
