We have had very good teachers at this school and have been happy until the last two years. We believe the level of disrespect certain children get away with toward the teachers is horrible. Not only for the teachers but also for the others students who are influenced by them. The board members at this school have way too much pull than they should have and unfortunately the teachers are paying for it.

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.
