Both our children attend Peirce and we've had a positive experience here so far over the years. The IB curriculum and school community as a whole is organized and intentional. I feel that my students are receiving a good education from knowledgeable and thoughtful educators. Peirce offers resources and opportunities for students to be creative and grow as individuals as well. My hope is that my students continue to feel included and valued here, and that communication in the school community continues. They have just hired a new Principal, after the previous one retired, and I have found the administration and faculty to be professional and supportive. The parent community is also incredibly active, and that makes being a part of Peirce fun for all.

This school is horrible. My son left Lane Tech to go here and what a complete opposite experience. There are fights and yesterday his classmate got beat up or stabbed. He saw blood and the teachers could give a dam as most don't even reply to emails or care if they fail your kid. It's mostly up to a school to get a kid engaged and passing. They have their phones, they can leave whenever they want. There are no punishments. Most CPS schools are awful. They just won't change and want problems and to get paid.
