The teachers are fantastic! My daughter was reading is Kindergarten after the first month! We love it. It's an accelerated program. The principal is very involved. We have a Chinese Language and Culture Program that also offers Chinese Dance afterschool.

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.
