I am so pleased with Chase Elementary. My child is in after school and perfromed in a dance competition at the Chicago Cultural Arts Center. Chase Elementary has given her so many opportunities. The teachers care and go the extra mile for their students.

The school provides a wonderful education from preschool thru 8th grade. They have lots of wonderful programs to educate the children during and after school. They even offer some programs to parents. The school is always looking to participate in programs that further the childrens education as well as health. They've joined a government program which provides free breatkfast (hot or cold) to every student every day and they are also partnering with several organizations that provide free tutoring to the students after school.

I've taught at Chase Elementary for over 25 years and definitely found it a life changing experience. I will never forget the many wonderful faculty members and students that I met over that time. I will always love Chase School.

The school offers amazing resources including parent programs, holistic health clinic, an afterschool drama arts program and great academic enrichment. Although the test scores have been low in the past they progress markedly each year. The environment is safe and just walking in the doors makes you aware something very good is happening.

Iwould like to say it is a very good school I myself went there and it was a good school then.

I have had nothing but great experiences for my son at this school. My son has been here five years. Each year he has had the pleasure of awesome teachers, who have put in great time and effort in the students. I as a parent hope that the city keeps helping our school with after school programs such as Sylvan learning center so that our children will be able to achieve better goals. With continued help we will succeed to higher ratings.

The ISAT is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Illinois. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
