In today's society speaking your mind and allowing creativity flow throughh is crucial. St.Therese does not support that. In fact they practically shove demerits in your face if you do so. The computer/Spanish teacher is an arrogant and boisterous person. He constantly flings demerits around as if they were to be toyed with. Of course, it is not, for it a very serious matter. Demerits at this school happen to be called, conduct referrals. He bellows out "conduct referral" and flicks it into a child's face often and never gives a chance for the child to speak. In computer classes, he isn't even teaching computer. He just makes the students go on some website and "study." I'm surprised st.Therese would even allow this person to be employed.
The teachers are the absolute best... not to mention Ms. Cavallone, the principal... we love her!
The quality education and afterschool programs allows this small community and the students the synergy to propell themselves for greater oppotunitites.
It is one of the great schools of Chinatown.
Great learning enviroment for kids and the teachers are exceptional.
Recognized as a leading institution with a focus in Chinese and Spanish language for their students. No other Chicago area school offers this curriculum!
I have known this school for many years. This school is a great school of academics and culture including chinese and spanish. They have great technology that kids could interact with while having a great time and great curriculum. I will always recommend this school!
St. Therese offers not only an excellent environment for study but also a well grounded, high quality education. Students feel engaged at all levels of classroom teaching. The school has a great teacher to student ratio which contributes to the overall involvement of the students.
The learning experience is highly academic and spiritual. The faculty is the best!
I have 2 children in this school and I feel that the education they are receiving now will help excel them for the future.
