Don’t send your kid here. Only people happy there are the well paid teachers

My 6 year old goes here for kindergarten. When she starts she was already read, write knows basic math. Whole year nothing improved academically, whole year she trace her own name. This is unbelievable. She complained about learning nothing and nothing existed there, doesn’t want to go. The papers, works she brings from school is just waste of papers and time nothing could learn from. I feel sorry for my kid. Better to update, improve their curriculum.

Both of my kids attended Ivy Hall school, and my younger one is in the 4th grade. Our experience as parents has been very positive and rewarding. The teachers new with less experience are smart and eager to educate and guide children. The school invests and provides our children with various activities other than studies like art, music etc. We liked that the school gave an opportunity to children to help “special needs kids”.

We moved to district 96 because we heard about good schools. Unfortunately, from grade 6th to 8th at Twin Grove I didn't have positive experience. I have 2 special need kids. My older one was bullied whole 6th grade and school after checking it didn't agree to it. My younger son was bullied by the same boy during a few months and school turned it my son's fault as he didn't complain right away as he couldn't when this boy stood on his feet every class and when my son pushed this boy of course everyone saw it... after talking with principal associate a few times and telling her it is bulling she said no... It took me months to protect my son from it. However it is not everything. Unfortunately, most of the teachers don't care about their students. They don't let parents know if a child didn't complete or should retake assignment. When you see it in many times it is too late as you see already the low score that doesn't show your child knowledge. I don't recommend this school for kids who might get bullied or need someone to help and support him. Teachers teach children as they in college, I mean if he wants he could take notes or not, but saying "if he would take notes he would remember it". No explanations to learn... Be ready to fight and support your child as school would do as minimum as they could!
