I have 2 children currently enrolled and 1 entering this year. My children are also above average do to how well the teacher care and the time they are willing to take with the kids. They have always made my children feel special. The focus on reading is great. My first grader can read very well do to her teacher which has taken time to help her develope great reading skills. Both children are very good at there mathmatic skills as well. They also try to teach good social skills.

So far my child is vary advanced for her grade level. She is in second on a 4th grade reading level. Her math skills are high also. Ahe take music ad art once a week and PE twice. Every month there is a night when children and parents get together and do art projects. Plus progress reports are sent home in the middle of each 9 week period.

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.
