Gloria Dei Lutheran School

Principal and superintendent are the worst . They can care less about the students . All they do is harass you if you get on their bad side .

My personal experience has been awful; the teachers are not professional and aggressive. My child is not in preschool and he has been telling us he doesn't want to go to that school anymore. From speaking with the teachers I can see why he doesn't want to go back. It's been so hard pushing him to go everyday, I'm starting to feel as I'm causing my son harm by keeping him in this school. I hope parents who think about enrolling their child with In IEP think twice and ask as many questions as they can prior to enrollment. Just by asking questions I have seen how short tempered the teachers are, please ask questions and try to be as involved as you possibly can for the well being of your child. Good luck if you are forced to this school I hope your experience is not as bad as mine.

Went to school there. terrible principal she was and still is rude and condescending she definitely needs to be fired, told my family that my IEP and 504 was fake and that i didn’t need one let alone never used it when i got one (which schools are legally required to follow an IEP) had a therapist and psychiatrist come in to tell them that i definitely needed certain requirements and still never cared, a few rude teachers and translators that were there, had one teacher tell my mother that my family needed counseling and i was faking everything. the way they would talk to students should be talked about more. will never send my kids here and will always advocate how terrible this school really is.

Honestly, I have been going to Mark Twain school since I was in 3rd and let me just say, the teachers there do not care about their students enough. From 3rd to 6th grade, they aren’t so strict about what you do and won’t really care what happens. But seventh and eighth grade, they treat you horribly. Currently, I’m in 7th grade and for the past few months I’ve been in school, it’s been hard. There’s test twice a week or more and I know it’s an import year since it determines what high school you go to, but they treat it like it’s a holy grail. Fail a test once? Your grade goes down to a 20%. Get an a,axing 94% on an exam? Your grade goes up like 0.5 of a point. The grading sucks, the teachers are so sassy and rude, the kids are especially nasty from the attitudes they’re surrounded with, and overall I wouldn’t go to this school UNLESS it is the only nearest school, or you want to teach your kid about the “real world” and even if you do that, your kids won’t really like you as much.

This has been the best school I have ever transferred my children to. The time and dedication the staff is with our children is indescribable. Dr. Bernard is such a dedicated principal and is the definition ofServant Leadership in this school. She not only helps teachers provide excellent teaching strategies but also works with the parent to be more involved and helps with techniques for teaching ur child at home. The Stickney police department is highly involved and attentive to the children of only with traffic duty on the street but walk the hallways to help children feelSafe and assuring not only staff but parents as well that safety is nothing u need to worry about. This has been the most welcoming area not only with neighbors but parents at school as well.
