Listen parents that are saying about lunch we can take lunch but nit unhealthy lunch plus because of your faulft she is retiring im a forth grade well i should say fifth grader and my school rock


Posted April 13, 2011

Regarding the home p[acked lunch vs your $2.25 daily lunch - this just fills the lunch provider's pockets. IS THIS AMERICA???? Seems to me " big brother" interferes too much.


Posted April 11, 2011

Principal leadership has gone too far. My kids miss their clean home packed lunches and little notes. Now they go hungry. Parents need to more involved.

The school is only about 10 years old and still looks clean and new. The teachers are wonderful with the students and give their all. Parents are very helpful and involved in the lsc. There is a new principal and hopes are she will have good open communication with all.

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.
