School starts too early!! The only school in Rockford that is still doing the “pledge of allegiance” so when they are “late” there not late for class their late in saying the “pledge of allegiance” is what they told me! They do not get back to you if your child said they have gotten into a fight you literally have to go in there and talk to the “principal”! There at the front desk all day but won’t pick up the phone or call back! I called them a week ago told them the situation and they still haven’t called or anything. I really don’t know if they check the answer machine probably only for attendance

My nephew finished his kindergarten here at STEAM with Ms Pligml- she’ one of the best Teacher. Principal, Teachers and Staff were the best. Respectful, INCLUSIVE, Accommodating. Maybe the location of the school is not that great but other than that, I have nothing but great things to say about this school.

the school is horrible for a child with diabetes, the teachers are uneducated about the disease and when the 504 plan is done, most do not show up for the meeting. My daughter has been here 3 years now and out of 5 or 6 teachers she is lucky to have 1 a year that sees her potential.

The absolute worst four years of my life. Many teachers just did not care. A vivid memory which was a good example of this: a teacher wrote an assignment on the chalkboard - Read chapter 5 and answer questions 1-10. The teacher then proceeded to sit at his desk reading a newspaper. Worthless.

Hand down, this is the best school in Illinois. I am from the suburbs of Chicago, and I believe this school is the best! Students are expected to perform at a high level and if they cannot take it then they have an option to leave. My older child feels high school is a breeze because of what he had learned in the gifted school.
