Excellent teachers and staff. Set up students for success.
Posted by a community member on 12/10/2025This was a great school. However the principal is the worst that I have ever encountered. The school has gotten worse and worse since Dr.Arundel has taken over. My kids use to look forward everyday to going to school. They learned a lot and truly enjoyed being there. But once Dr.Arundel came, she ma
Posted by a parent on 10/30/2023This school didnt care at all for the child’s safety and sanity. I was constantly bullied and harassed here and no principal or teacher cared enough to do anything. I wasn’t;t a one off case either many people faced this. I hated this school and wish that it gets major changes. Im permanently trauma
Posted by a community member on 9/5/2023this school is definitley not the choice if you want your child to thrive. as a student who has been going to pleasantdale for 10 years, (preschool-8th grade) i cant tell you that i've had more negative experiences, rather than positive ones. this school plays a huge role in my mental health struggl
Posted by a student on 7/5/2023If I could give it 0 stars I would. This school is only great and wonderful if your child is mainstream and standard. If your child has any difficulties they don’t care, they are unhelpful and not supportive. They act like they never dealt with children that have disabilities. They don’t respond to

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe relocated from Naperville Schools, and having a good experience there, the school system was one thing that made me want to stay in Naperville. After being a part of the Pleasantdale community for several years, I have no regrets. Every single person I have dealt with at the school, from the office staff, teachers, and principal to the superintendent and other parents has made a positive impact. This school truly feels like a community. I am often in awe at how both of my kids are thriving both academically and social/emotionally at Pleasantdale. The teachers and principal are engaging and encourage participation from the parents. I am so happy we are part of this community!Parent Review2y ago - Highlands Elementary School

10/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageUnfortunately our kids have had issues with bullying in the grade school. We also know several families at the school who have had similar issues. the current principal doesn't deal with these issues. The school tends to favor kids who have issues over the kids who are bullied or even create unsafe conditions in the classroom. The current principal doesn't believe in removing problem students and drags their feet on issues. The general consensus among parents is to deal with some issues outside of the school channel since its not taken seriously. We have had better luck reaching out directly to the parents with our issues rather then work through the school. The upside is the community of parents seems willing to work together to solve issues.Parent Review2y ago - Oak Elementary School

9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOak school is an outstanding elementary school. The principal, Dr. Martha Henrikson demonstrates that she cares deeply about the success of each student and that philosophy that is shared by the entire staff. Oak is in District 181, feeds into the highly rated Hinsdale Middle School and then to Hinsdale High School. It is one of the top schools in Illinois for a very good reason.Parent Review4y ago - Hodgkins Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageTerrible safety issues. Teacher was rude to children. They also take money out of your account months after you remove your child because “they forgot to delete your account” Go elsewhere, they don’t care about your kid/s, they care more about your money. I emailed the Principal and never heard from him. Terrible leadership.Parent Review3mo ago - Trinity Lutheran School
