The Indiana Department of Education (IDOE) requires that all students in grades 3-8 participate in three ILEARN Checkpoints in addition to the ILEARN summative assessment in the spring each year. These checkpoints are a component of the ILEARN through-year assessment for English/Language Arts (ELA) and Math. You should not stress about these tests, they are just little checkups throughout the year.

THESE TESTS ARE NOT IN PERSON - THEY ARE DONE DURING YOUR LIVE CLASS SESSIONS

ILEARN Checkpoints are a computer adaptive test for ELA and Math. That means that the questions get harder and easier depending on your students answers. These are replacing STAR tests that students were given previously, and are designed to help teachers know where your student is at in their learning and what topics they may need more help with.

All of our Indiana students grade 3-8 will be required to participate in the ILEARN checkpoints on November 3-5

Additional Remote ILEARN Checkpoint Dates:

• ILEARN Checkpoint 2 :: February 9th - 11th
• ILEARN Checkpoint 3 :: March 31st - April 2nd

👉 Please take a moment to review our ILEARN Checkpoint Newsletter, which includes helpful information to prepare your student for testing.

AP Exam Success Tips

To succeed in AP courses and exams, combine strong content mastery with smart test-taking strategies, consistent practice, and time management.

🎯 AP Tip #1: Build the Habit Now

Don’t wait until spring to start reviewing. Spend 10–15 minutes each week revisiting an older topic. By May, you’ll have practiced the material many times instead of trying to relearn everything at once.

✏️ AP Tip #2: Practice Explaining, Not Just Answering

📒 AP Tip #3: Learn From Your Mistakes!

Don't just correct an answer—figure out WHY you got it wrong!

When reviewing assignments or practice tests, ask yourself:

• Did I misunderstand the question?

• Did I forget an important concept?

• Did I rush or make a careless mistake?

AP Success Secret: Keep a Mistake Journal where you record what went wrong and how to avoid making the same mistake again.

Remember: Every mistake you understand now is a point you could earn in May!

On an AP exam, getting the answer is often only part of the job. Practice explaining why your answer makes sense using correct vocabulary and evidence from the problem. A correct answer with a weak explanation can cost points.

The Advanced Study Program, in concert with Marian University’s Saint Joseph College, offers MU Prep high school juniors and seniors under the age of 19, the opportunity to take college courses either live-virtually or in-person. Courses are taught by Marian University faculty, and students earn college credits that can count towards high school credits.

• Traditionally MU Prep juniors and seniors have access to 100-level courses; upper-level courses may require pre-requisite course completion or approval.
• Tuition rates for high school students interested in the Advanced Study are $25 per credit hour, which means a standard three-credit Advanced Study course costs $75.
• Students may take up to 36 hours/credit of college - dual credit courses at Marian University.
