5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAvoid sending your children to this school at all cost’s. Very unprofessional teachers/staff, they don’t care about the kids at all I don’t see how anyone’s kids could benefit from people who claim they’re in charge but don’t know how to properly communicate or teach the kids the right way. I’m very disappointed in the way they handle things, me having my kids transfer is the best decision I could have ever made. I hope one day they change their whole staff and the way things are conducted for the sake of the children.Parent Review6mo ago - South Elgin High School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe school has been excellent in our time with a child attending. The teachers are supportive and creative in their teaching, and they encourage each student to bring their own unique talents to the classroom environment and homework. As a parent, I appreciate the way the school holds students to standards of conduct and academics, without being so strict that it would inhibit kids from being kids. The other parents seem engaged and enthusiastic about the school as well. Lastly, the opportunities to cross over in the arts and other areas with the high school next door is a real value-add that enhances the transition from 8th to 9th grades while also giving HS students leadership and mentorship exposure.Parent Review6y ago
