As a former student at Sears, I can say with ease that it gave my classmates and I a significant advantage at New Trier High School over other students from various other schools in the area.

Sears is an awesome school! The Village of Kenilworth is a tight knit community and Sears is the pulse. There is a lot of parent involvement both of time and money, which is the KEY to the success of a Public School. Yes, there is always room for improvement but overall you are hard pressed to find a better school on the North Shore or Chicago-land area.

I agree with yesterday's post in that the school is overal top notch and has the best of both worlds being a public school in one of the wealthiest, small communities that is so suportive of enrichment. And that iwth any issues of human nature and child development, issues like teasing and bullying exist everywhere. The problem that many are talking about at Sears is that administration needs to handle the issues more effectively by upholiding the school policies so that all in the school community are rest assured that things are being managed appropriately no matter whose child is involved or how much money or influence the parents have. Also, the administration, board , teachers , staff, and parents need to hear from more parents that they support them 100% when situtations come up to execute proper measures. More parents need to attend board meetings.
