I am a .5 art teacher teaching at McDowell School of International Studies and think it is an abolutely wonderful school. The children are encouraged to be excellent and do their best -- and if they fall short, there are teachers, mentors and aids there to help them achieve their full potential. This is a school that has the flavor of a private school-- great teachers, great leadership and an atmosphere of nurturing, scholarship, respect for the arts and creativity. I am thrilled to be at this school, and feel my heart leap every time I pull up in my car to begin a school day. Bravo to Dr. Hood and everyone else who works so hard to make it a little jewel in the crown of Chicago Public Schools. Bravo!
My son is new to the school and he loves it. He made the statement that his teacher makes learning fun and that makes me soooo happy. He is happy and learning and that gives me peace of mind.
There are no words to say about this school, except bravo! The principal, and teachers greet you like family. They always have a smile on their face, and they make me feel confortable leaving my daughter in their care. The second thing they strive on is education. You see the difference. They care about the kids first, and then promote higher education. A child that feels comfort, and love, can not do anything else, but excel.
