Everett Dirksen Elementary School

Anyone reading the reviews about this school should pay attention to the dates. The staff has Dirksen has been overhauled in the last few years and the school has taken on a much different and unpleasant learning environment.

The open enrolment program at this school is very good, as is the multiage curriculum. My first grader, has blossomed really well, and has become confident all-round in the company of the older kids.

My daughter is only in kindergarten, but so far I have been really impressed. Dirksen has such a great blend of family and community at it's core. I'm thrilled to have my daughter attending Dirksen on the 'School of Choice' program.

Fantastic 'school of choice' with caring staff and a great PTA. The school is a warm community, my children do very well and are happy at Dirksen. I have always been pleased when visiting the school during school hours, the classrooms are busy without being chaotic. The multi-age instruction has been a good experience, especially when children are on the fringe in the age requirement.
