Of the 109 students in Burnham School District 154-5 who took the Math portion of the test, approximately two (1.8%) passed.

The percentage of Burnham School District 154-5 students who met or exceeded expectations on the IAR decreased by 0.1% compared to the previous school year.

Burnham School District 154-5 roughly covers two schools within Cook County and has a main office in Burnham.

The Illinois Assessment of Readiness (IAR) assesses the progress of students in grades 3-8 in meeting the Illinois Learning Standards in English language arts and mathematics.

Illinois has approved a new budget for 2025 that increases funds for K-12 education to $8.6 billion, $350 million above last year’s budget. Lawmakers also approved a new bill that creates a statewide child tax credit, which allows families to receive $300 per child under 17 years. This comes after a similar aid was granted from the federal government, as part of the American Rescue Plan.
