This School is terrible as a student here I feel that this school is not a safe place for minorities witch many I am a part of and do not try to help those who are in need and I do not feel like that I would be safe here without loads of protection and it. makes be scared to be myself.

I was a former student here, and I would like to say that the teachers here are very noteworthy. They all feel like their own people with very fleshed-out personalities and that greatly contributed to creating an engaging in-class experience. Each class felt like a different territory, a new world, and I had fun with all of them, from the goofballs and the comedians to the warm and nerdy...However, I can't say anything else is super great. The school is very overcrowded, bullying runs rampant and staff does nothing to address it. I was a scrawny kid who got pushed around by jocks (literally- going to class is a fight for your life) and openly insulted. Hate circles the hallways like the wind. Fights break out weekly, and the populars (mainly boys) who think they own the place make sure that everyone KNOWS that they own the place. I felt constantly unsafe in the building.The school tries its best to offer mental/emotional support, but, in my experience, they actually just make things worse. "Confidential" information gets relayed to several people.Great teachers, awful students and no attempts to correct them.

Horrible administration. They will do anything they can to make a parent feel uncomfortable if they deem you have a “problem child”. They do absolutely nothing to help kids that are falling behind or may need additional assistance. They also do not follow IEP for students. We will be pulling our child at the end of this year and transferring our child to another school because of how awful our child’s first couple years of experience were at this school. I’d highly advise you ask other people what they think because this school has a reputation.

I moved to Minooka for the schools. It kinda reminded me of an early Plainfield. Then plainfield became overcrowded in the schools and bussed in low income from other areas. There is a lot of favoritism in the Minooka school system and the surrounding areas as well. Worst decision I made was to move to this school district.

I can’t tell you how good it is when you drop your kids off at school and know that they are safe and the staff is determined to keep it that way. Knowing that the teachers really do care about their students, because you can see it in their actions.
