This is the worst school! I wish I didnt have to send my child here. The principal is the the worst, they need to let her go. The school has no leadership. The teachers are okay. They would be better if they had a better leader. Your better off homeschooling your child then sending them here.

Some of the teachers are okay others are not. The principal is not good. This school would be a better place without the principal.

*some of the teachers there are great which is why they only stick around for a year or two then leave. the principal is awful and has been there for a while so it might be time for change.* I agree what this parent said, and I did the same thing to transfer my kid too.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Illinois used the Illinois Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in reading and math, and in grades 4 and 7 in science. 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.
