Worst school ever! Take your child out of here. Principal is quite irresponsible and teachers only protect him, people here show a face of being very kind staff, but in reality they cover their faults each other, without caring if it affects the student. Don't be fooled by their fake friendliness an
Posted by a parent on 2/25/2021I appreciate administrations care and concerns for the students at BP. I am happy with programs and activities that the school offers students and parents. My son loves his school.
Posted by a parent on 8/5/2015This school is better now that it has a new principal. Principal Williams was just bad, and Principal Johnson bad as well. The assistant principals were always good, Ms. Basile, Ms. Smith and Ms. Dragos, but too bad they are all gone because of the horrible principals. I have 2 kids at Brighton Park

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAll the lower scores are from more than 10 years ago with a completely different principal and staff, so I thought it was time to write a more current review. My daughter just started 1st grade and this is her 1st experience with a CPS school - she was previously at a Montessori school from when she was an infant to pre-K. My wife and I are realizing more and more what a special school Everett STEM Academy is - it was designated as a STEM school in 2019, but the concentration on emotional and social growth really solidified in our minds what a great decision it was to enroll our child here. The teachers and staff know are really invested in the students...I witness during morning dropoff the school counselor, Ms. Wiley, say hi to each child by name and she asks each of them about specific things in their lives. The 1st grade teacher, Ms Salgado is encouraging of our child's successes as well as in tune with her challenges and needs. We get specific ideas on how we can continue school support for our child at home. The communication with the staff is EXCELLENT. They're very responsive to emails and input (our child is Filipino and Ms. Salgado and Ms. Wiley had some fun activities for the kids to learn about Filipino culture during Filipino Heritage month). I can't comment on the special education aspect of the school because I just don't know, but in all other aspects (learning, teaching, social-emotional support, safety, family engagement) we are so happy with Everett STEM Academy.Parent Review2y ago - Greene N Elementary School
