5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis is a poorly run school. In general, bullies are tolerated in all of the Marengo schools. The attitude of the Administration is that Parents exist to "SERVE" and "PAY" for the schools and the high salaries and entitlements. The children are a by-product of the relationship. The problem is the school boards. I would tell anyone to send their child to a private school. The administrators gang up on parents who comp[lain and then take it out on the student.Parent Review3y ago - Locust Elementary School

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe pick up line is HORRIBLE. It's always too long and it takes forever to pick up your child. They NEED to come up with a BETTER system. The teachers- some are great and others are not pleasant at all. This school should try to do better.Parent Review4mo ago - Marengo High School
