Congratulations to Vienna District #55 Staff and Students to earn the 2024 ISBE Commendable Summative Designation!
The Every Student Succeeds Act requires states to annually assess the performance of public elementary and secondary schools. These designations describe schools excelling across various academic and student success indicators and identify schools requiring support and improvement.
Illinois issues five Annual Summative Designations:
• Exemplary acknowledges the top-performing 10% of schools.
• Comprehensive identifies (A) schools in the lowest-performing 5% and (B) schools with overall performance above the lowest-performing 5% that have one or more individual student groups who remain Targeted, even after completing a full Targeted school improvement cycle.
• Intensive identifies schools that remain in the lowest-performing 5%, even after completing a full Comprehensive Support school improvement cycle.
• Targeted recognizes schools with overall performance above the lowest-performing 5% but with individual student groups performing similarly to the lowest 5%.
• All other schools receive a Commendable designation.
