10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have 2 children at Hawthorne, and our experience could not be better. When transferred from a private school in Chicago, our oldest was struggling to keep up with her classmates due to a learning disability. Within 3 months of attending Hawthorne, she was exceeding classroom averages and thriving. We have loved every teacher we have had. They are creative and caring. The parent community is friendly and involved.Parent Review6y ago - Sandburg Middle School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe snobbiness and elitism so rampant in the city of Elmhurst unfortunately carries over to York High School. The school is so huge, many students falll through the cracks. Like the city of Elmhurst, the school also wants to maintain an appearance of perfection and superiority, very ugly attitude.Student Review5mo ago

Most of the dogs in this neighborhood are small. I think there might be one beagle, a few mixed breeds about that size and some little tiny dogs. The owner of a dangerous dog, and his dog, would not be welcome here."
