What Locals Say about Western Springs

  • Shawnaguney
    "The public schools here are literally FANTASTIC. We are so happy about the academic standards and the kindness of the educators at McClure and Forest Hills. Neither of us are teachers. We are a physician and an engineer mom and dad with three kids. You don’t have to send your kids to private school here but, there are some fantastic options here, close by. We’ve lived here 4 years and we know almost every neighbor on our block. So far we’re super happy to be here. "
