I got traumatized by this mess of a school. I am a former student of this school.
Posted by a community member on 2/8/2024We moved to Champaign from a large city on the west coast. We wanted to ensure our children continued to schooling in a diverse and academically challenging environment. We felt that Barkstall was the best gradeschool where we could ensure she was getting both. Our daughter is in 1st Grade this year
Posted by a parent on 4/20/2022When we moved to Champaign several years ago, we asked around a lot of people, and the name Barkstall came up highly recommended over and over. We moved next to the school and enrolled our son to Barkstall. We were not disappointed. My son, who is rather shy, quickly made friends, and the teacher ma
Posted by a parent on 5/30/2014We have three children at Barkstall. The teachers are AMAZING. They are incredibly hardworking and involved with the students and parents.

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageOur two children (now 27 and 25) went to this school, and then continued in Montessori elementary. Our experiences were so good that we enrolled our granddaughter when she was 16 months. She is now four and loves it. She has a love of learning and a curiosity that we see everyday day, whether she is at school or not. She consistently amazes us with what she has learned, and how much she loves learning. There are several teachers that were there when our kids were there. In fact, my granddaughter’s teacher was my son’s teacher 22 years ago. That says a lot about the school. My daughter’s teacher is also still there, after more than 20 years. I could go in and on, but it’s just a great learning environment for her. Oh, she also has an emotional intelligence way beyond her years. She can identify complex feelings, and she knows how to handle her various emotional states.Parent Review3y ago
