It gave my three children an excellent start academically.

This is suppose be the best school district. They is why I sold my home in bolingbrook and moved here. My daughter loves the school and the teachers. I do feel that minority kids are looked down on. But that is basically everywhere in the world. With that being said I will give her the best education I can and she gets it at scott school.

I had two children at this school for two years until we switched to private school. I agree with the one parent review that if your child is average, they will do fine. However, they will not be challenged academically. It seems to me the teachers and administration play favorites, that is if you are a 'popular' parent, your child will receive much attention. If your child has any problems, academically or socially, good luck on getting help. I transferred my children because they were not academically challenged and the culture of the school was very snobby.

My second child is about to 'graduate' from Scott School. Our family has enjoyed the last 9 years at the school. The front office staff has changed since 2005 and is consistantly friendly and helpful. My first child had behavior/social problems and the staff worked with him and me, so that by 3rd grade he was working independently and making friends. The principal and vice principal are always friendly and really get know the students.

There is great parent involvement at Scott School in Naperville. I personally met the principal and teachers who were involved in my son s education throughout the year. Scott School mad the transition into kindergarten a pleasant one. My son had a special need and the Scott school addressed it with the up most professionalism. I trust my son will get the best education at Scott School.

Attended this school and have wonderful memories of this school. Teachers and facility was great. Lots of forward thinking ideas with traditional material.

Scott School is best suited for those children that do not fall at either end of the learning curve. Having four children who attended or currently attend Scott School over a span of ten years it has been my experience that Scott School expects a large percentage of education/learning to occur at home. If a child is not keeping pace with his/her class it becomes a problem that parents are expected to deal with and correct. Very little (if any) teacher resources are involved. While much is demanded of parents, Scott School support staff is consistently rude, brusque and abrasive to parents. It is a typical experience, when waiting at the front desk, to be ignored for long periods of time and then to be treated as an annoyance when finally acknowledged.
