Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR)
IAR is a state-mandated assessment. It is designed to measure if students are on track for college and career readiness. IAR asks students to demonstrate critical-thinking and problem-solving skills in an in-depth manner. Students are asked to answer various types of questions, show their work, and explain their reasoning. All students in Grades 3-8 are tested in reading and mathematics in late spring.
