I was a student at Audubon I graduated in 1999, it was a great school then and it has only gotten better with time. The teachers, and principal are great with the kids education and caring about everyone. My daughter will be starting 1st grade and I am confident that just like her previous years she will succeed due to all the hard work the teachers do with the students
My daughter is in her 3rd year at this school, and I feel so fortunate to live in this neighborhood where this is the elementary school. In an era where charter schools are the rage, Audubon is a reminder that with cooperation between the principal, teachers, AND parents, a neighborhood CPS school can succeed and even excel. Don't give up on neighborhood schools. Charters are not the answer, Mayor Emanuel.
I graduated Audubon in 2010 and am currently attending Lane Tech High School. I really recommend this school to everyone. It's teachers are wonderful, really supportive and do a great job at getting to know each of their student. Audubon also has a great principal who is greatly involved in all aspects of the school.
Our son is going to preschool there and so far things are really bad, teacher (name witheld due to tos of the website) is taking notes about kids behavior and kids repeatedly told us that she neglected to address their needs and requests. My son was crying because he didn't understand what she wants from him and she didn't want to tell him. Since these are really little kids, I am really frustrated.
Its the only school on the north side of chicago of its kind. The school see all its students as gifted and teaches in an all inclusive model in a very unique and extraordinary way! This school is truly AMAZING!
The teachers and parents really do care about each other and the students well being and education. The principal and asst., principal take care of their students by listening and resolving problems. The staff do wonderfull work. My kids don't want to go to any other school .
The teachers and staff are amazing. They care about my child. They make them selves available to my child and to us as parents. They are supportive of my child
Audubon is the best community school in the city. I have never seen a parent group interact so effectively with the LSC and Principal to ensure their children have a positive learning experience.
It encourages my son's imagination in so many ways. There are many areas of study from which he can enrich his education. The community unity is awesome at this school. My son LOVES to go to school there, it can't get better than that.
Our grandchildren, one of which is a special needs student receive the highest quality education by the most awesome teachers and support staff. Most of all the children love to go to school each day. How cool is that!
