I am a student from Belmont-Cragin and i can honestly say, i like going there. I am graduating in june 2012. I've spent 8 years in this school. My friends and classmates are literally like my family. Everyone is very connected in that school. They have great teachers like Barral, Garcia, and Wolski. who teach 5,6,7,8th graders. The only teacher i don't like is Kraft. She does rude comments to kids, especially if they got in trouble or did something wrong. Which i really dislike. Other than that great school. The teachers do care alot and get to know you individually since it's a very small school. Clubs, afterschools are great. I would totally recommend parents to let your child be a part of this school.
This is a fabulous school for pre-school. I feel blessed my children got in. I am less familiar with the elementary school, but the head teacher at the pre-school, Ms. Moya understands the children. We are a bilingual household so the model worked for us. A gem on the west side where few are hard to come by
The classrooms are beautiful. The teaching staff is very gentle and they use the Reggio Emilia approach, the school's atelier (art studio) is beautiful and very functional. It is a hidden gem and parent involvement is very encouraged.
