Tables list grade-specific cut scores for Above Proficient, Proficient, Approaching Proficient, and Below Proficient, each paired with a score range that defines student performance boundaries. Additional descriptions clarify what each performance level indicates about demonstrated knowledge and application of assessed Illinois Learning Standards for the subject and grade, including
