I can't be more than happy with the experience my son has had in Kindergarten. I feel that his teachers and staff are really dedicated to their jobs and the students.

We switched my son from another magnet school during 1st grade because he was not being challenged and his grades and behavior were starting to decline. ALL OF THAT CHANGED WHEN WE STARTED AT EARLE BROWN. From the very first day, he was our happy, engaged little boy again! His teacher is fantastic, the kids were excited to have him and made him feel welcome, and he LOVES going to school. When he needs more of a challenge, I tell his teacher and she immediately responds. He is now doing 2nd and 3rd grade work while still in 1st grade, and is excited to learn and more and more strongly develop the personal attributes the IB Program encourages. We love that he some of his weekly Specials are Spanish and Research, plus and some pretty amazing field trips. We have NO REGRETS about switching schools. WE LOVE EARLE BROWN!

We opened enrolled both of our children at Earle Brown and have been more than pleased with the learing experience they have had to this point. We have been blessed with AMAZING teachers. The only issues I have had have been regarding discipline or handling of an issue by the Dean. As someone else that submitted a review said, the neighborhood is of no concern - I would highly recommend this school!

Our daughter attended Earle Brown for Kindergarten this year through the NW Suburban magnet enrollment program and we couldn't have been more pleased with her first year of school. The teachers and staff are involved and know each and every student. The IB program provides a multi-dimensional learning experience that has been fantastic. Our child has been exposed to sign language, Spanish, music, different cultural celebrations, alongside the regular math, science, reading one would expect. She's also learned to think outside of the box and to look at the impacts around her of what she does. Highly recommend this school and we look forward to next year.

During my daughter's first day of Kindergarten, I was so nervous seeing the shuffle of students and staff members. I feared she'd get lost amongst the people and wouldn't know where she is. I feared she wouldn't make it home on the bus and that she won't remember where she's supposed to arrive. All my fears were laid to rest with the staff including her teacher! They are so calming, understanding, and kind. My fears for my daughter's first day of school vanished. There's nobody else I'd trust her to. The staff is very involved in caring for the children's well being. Even the PRINCIPLE was out directing and guiding the chaos of the first day of school. Not even the first day, he's out there everyday. He doesn't hide out in his office tracking who's in and who's not. I am a proud parent of EARLE BROWN elementary students!

We open enrolled our son at Earle Brown from a much more affluent and less diverse area because we wanted him to experience the richness of being educated with students from cultures other than our own. The teachers here are great - very creative and enthusiastic. Our son has special needs but also is a high ability learner so he's quite the challenge but they LOVE him there and have had great ideas for how to enrich his curriculum while making adaptations for his disabilities. I didn't even have to ask!! They did it because they saw the need. When you walk down the hallways of a school and everyone is smiling (those who work there as well as those who attend there), you know something is right in the school. Don't let the test scores or the neighborhood fool you. This is an awesome school.
