Survey Now Available!
Dear District, 19 Families :
Starting this month, parents, students (4th-12th grades) and educators across Illinois have an opportunity to participate in the statewide Illinois 5Essentials Survey. On behalf of the Illinois State Board of Education, the Illinois 5Essentials Survey will be administered online by UChicago Impact at the University of Chicago. The survey gathers data related to five indicators that can predict important student outcomes, including improved attendance and larger test score gains. This survey is designed to generate a detailed picture of the inner workings of your child’s school.
5Essentials Parent Survey
The parent survey takes approximately 10-15 minutes to complete and is available in English and Spanish. To take the survey, visit https://survey.5-essentials.org/Illinois/. One survey per child can be submitted per family. The survey window will be open until March 11, 2022. Your participation in the parent portion of the survey will help us understand the conditions at your child’s school and guide improvement. Your identity and survey responses will be kept completely confidential and will never be connected to you or your child.
For more information about the Illinois 5Essentials Survey, or to view previous years’ reports, please visit https://www.5-essentials.org/illinois. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact 5Essentials Client Services at 1-866-440-1874 or impact-surveys@uchicago.edu.
Thank you in advance for providing us with your feedback.
Sincerely,
Tiffany Elswick
District 19 Superintendent

Happy 2022! It is a new year with new goals. Now is the perfect time to share the Illinois High School 2 Career tool! This site provides students and parents with a wide range of information to help students explore future education and career paths that align with their goals for salary and job stability. Find the link below.
Students can learn about different career paths, find information about employment and future earnings, learn about education/training needed for a career path, and compare college majors.
Students can use Illinois High School 2 Career like a “What if…” machine. What if I want to go into agribusiness? Or finance? Or healthcare? What if I took an Advanced Placement course? What if I had a low score on the SAT? What if I had a high score? What if I don’t really want to go to college but would rather begin working immediately? This tool empowers every student to explore what their future might look like with their own characteristics, preferences, and goals factored into the forecast.
ISBE developed this tool in partnership with the Illinois Department of Employment Security and the Illinois Student Assistance Commission.
