Dryden Elementary School

My children love their school. You will not be able to find a better art teacher anywhere! The regular classroom teachers are wonderful too. When my children showed they needed more challenging work, their teachers were ready to provide it. The communication between parent and teacher is easy. Parent involvement at the school is welcomed and encouraged.

What a wonderful feeling to drop your kids off at school and let the school do it's job. Our first year at Dryden has been wonderful. My children have made some great friends and have learned a lot. The teachers are very positive and work great with the students. Keep up the good work!!!!

This is an awesome school with wonderful staff. I feel the Principal and Assistant Principal are great and extremely involved contrary to the previous reviewer. The art, music and gym classes have all added tremendous value!

This school says they do everything for their students, but they are full of it. The principal and assistant principal have no respect for parents or children. If EngIish is your second language they will walk all over you. I would not recommend this school for ANYONE!!!!

the school is great, my son's teacher won the golden apple award last year. I believe it's the best choice for elementary school in Arlington heights.

My kindergartener is reading books all by herself and reading words like character etc. She participated in a musical where every single kindergarten kid knew every single word and action. She's writing letters to an elephant and figuring out sentences to write. This is a great great school!
