I went to Churchill High School. I had just moved from Mexico City, the adjustment was very easy, the intensity of studies and the expectation from the students was so low that I thought I was on vacation. I do gave to give credit to all the teachers for their efforts, since the program was not written by them.
Churchill was terrible, they gave my son too much homework. He got really overwhelmed with homework, and I am sending him to Clark this year. I hope Churchill can improve on this matter.

My daughter just graduated and I feel she is very well prepared for college. She loves Churchill so much she wants to return to S.A. after college so her children can attend! The dance team was her life. It taught her so much about respect, pride, and the importance of education. She learned more about life through dance than I could ever have taught her as a parent. She listened to her dance coach( Brooke McGillaway) way more than me and Miss McG was always right on the mark!

Two sons have graduated Churchill. Teachers are generally good, if sometimes slow to communicate with parents. Administration is alert, communicative, but paranoid to the slightest variation from political correctness. Counselors know the 10% rule backward-and-foward, but plan on developing your own 4-year curriculum and college plan. Another dilemma? The class of 2009 graduated 96 summa cum ladue students in a class of about 690 - 13% with perfect-plus grades. The school is proud, but this suggests significant grade inflation (e.g., my son finished in the 3rd quarter with a GPA of 89%). A grade of 'B' is the new 'C'. It is a no-child-left-behind school, as long as your child is not too average.
