8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe have been at Dewey with both our daughters for over six years now and love it. It has become a strong community for us and our daughters. The teachers have been able to inspire our children as well as amazingly able to focus on what academic needs they have. Our oldest matriculated on to Nichols, and our youngest is in the TWI program, which has been an amazing experience for her. The PTA is very strong here and allows for parent involvement in the educational support of our community, which we also really appreciate. Great school. We're glad we moved to Evanston and to Dewey.Parent Review2y ago - Nichols Middle School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWhile Evanston Township High School (ETHS) may provide strong support for students with IEPs and other learning plans, it falls short in serving academically advanced students. The school prioritizes inclusivity in honors courses, allowing all freshmen and sophomores to enroll regardless of previous academic performance. While this approach may be well-intentioned, it ultimately results in watered-down coursework that fails to challenge high-achieving students.Our experience, having a senior at ETHS, has revealed concerning academic trends. Colleges and universities are beginning to recognize the declining rigor of ETHS, and the results speak for themselves—students with stellar academic records (4.5+ GPAs,1500 SAT, multiple AP courses, and National Merit recognition, State Athlete ) are facing unexpected deferrals and rejections from top-tier schools, including Wisconsin, Michigan, and Ivy League institutions. Reports from the community indicate that very few ETHS students have been accepted through Early Action or Early Decision this year, a stark contrast to previous years.Unfortunately, this issue is likely to worsen as students from District 65—an already struggling district potentially facing state intervention—enter ETHS. If you are looking for a high school that will truly challenge and prepare academically gifted students for competitive colleges, I strongly recommend considering other options. Likewise, I advise families to avoid District 65 (K-8) if academic excellence is a priority.Parent Review1y ago
