6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy nephew finished his kindergarten here at STEAM with Ms Pligml- she’ one of the best Teacher. Principal, Teachers and Staff were the best. Respectful, INCLUSIVE, Accommodating. Maybe the location of the school is not that great but other than that, I have nothing but great things to say about this school.Parent Review1mo ago - Bernard W Flinn Middle School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating Averagethe school is horrible for a child with diabetes, the teachers are uneducated about the disease and when the 504 plan is done, most do not show up for the meeting. My daughter has been here 3 years now and out of 5 or 6 teachers she is lucky to have 1 a year that sees her potential.Parent Review10y ago - Rockford East High School

2/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe absolute worst four years of my life. Many teachers just did not care. A vivid memory which was a good example of this: a teacher wrote an assignment on the chalkboard - Read chapter 5 and answer questions 1-10. The teacher then proceeded to sit at his desk reading a newspaper. Worthless.Other Review7y ago - White Swan Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageHand down, this is the best school in Illinois. I am from the suburbs of Chicago, and I believe this school is the best! Students are expected to perform at a high level and if they cannot take it then they have an option to leave. My older child feels high school is a breeze because of what he had learned in the gifted school.Parent Review4y ago - Check out schools near 1138 Melwood Dr.
