I think that this school is awesome bc the teachers RLY care for the students, and the kids in the school r actually rly kind to one another, mostly everyone gets along and there is no cliques, or anything like dat. Everyone hangs with everyone.If you want a nice, calm, safe, learning enviorment then yuh should go her.

He picks and chooses which programs will place him in a good light.If you're child is not in the IB program or ROTC , expect them to 1) drop out and become a product of their environment 2) get pushed toward a labor position IF they graduate 3) join the military. The teachers will place an emphasis on those kids that are gifted enough to get in the IB programs where they will receive any and all information on the colleges of their choice and scholarship programs overseas trips etc. Those kids that need additional attention WILL fall to the side and considered problem students. If the teachers don't put forth an effort to reach them, the kids will feel they have no other choice to become who they think they are. I'm fortunate my kid is in some Honors classes as well as Advances Placement so she will not all scholarship info, but maybe financial aid will help. Until Ken Hunter is removed, the school will not be somewhere you will want to send your kid

My school may not be the best, but it has given me such opportunities as traveling to Peru and other great places. There is a myriad of opportunities for students here. The IB Program is also a huge asset. Seniors are continuously gaining admission into such schools as the University of Chicago and Vanderbilt.

This school is better than most Chicago public schools but still falls short in key areas expected of a college preparatory high school. The most damaging areas are the quality of teaching and level of teacher involvement.
