ISBE's Weekly Message

April 8, 2025

MONTH OF THE MILITARY CHILD

We are aware of the technical issues that happened today with ACT testing. I have talked with the president of ACT to express our concerns. ACT will provide additional communication about technical issues and specific timing scenarios experienced on April 8 as soon as more information is available. You can find today’s communications from ACT on the ISBE High School Assessment webpage (regarding logging into TCM and what to do if you experienced a test disruption​).

More than 6,000 children in Illinois are in families connected to the military. April has been designated Month of the Military Child to help us pause and consider the unique challenges these students face due to frequent relocations across the country and around the world.
