A very good school with good caring teachers all the way from kindergarten to sixth grade. A lot of communication from the principal and staff. They could improve in areas of Art and Music and also options for foreign language, but otherwise it's a great place for my kid to learn and grow. It's nice to know I can fully trust my child being there.

As with ANY school parent involvement is the number one indicator of student success. If you encourage and support your kids through their U-46 school experience they will be very successful. Our two kids have grown up in the district and plan to graduate with honors. Very well prepared for college with our daughter being accepted into UChicago Pritzker for pre-med.

The 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.
