Gresham Elementary School

The current Principal is the rudest person I've met in a long time. I have subbed here a few times and would not do it again. One time I had no sub plans, no roster, and no schedule (this happens regularly at Cook). Students were running around the building and I had no idea who was even supposed to be in my class because there was no roster. I alerted the principal that students were just roaming freely (at least 10 students) he shrugged and said he was busy. Did not care at all about where they were or their safety. The staff admits they don't like the principal at all and even apologized for his behavior. It's not the staff that's the problem, it's that principal. Morale is very low and if I had to deal with him every day I would not want to come to work either.

An 8/10 because it created a mindset that carried me throughout high school and onto college. I found out what my likes where as far as my talents in academics and extracurriculars that can manifest into a career. Things that I found myself doing in high school because I was introduced to it at Fort Dearborn. The people as in teachers, certain ones for me but it all depends on who you are and who you connect with, had an affect on me and I will always remember them pushing me to be who I am, and who I was to them, was great and promising! But, of course things may change for students, this was back in 2012.

My son attends this school.. It is terrible for he is in a diverse class room that do not care about student learning goals. Also the office workers need to be fired as well as the assistant principal. This school is understaffed and does not show concern for the some students, Mainly students with disabilities. This school does not watch the students effectively. My son has an IEP, I receive a call from a parent stating he was with a group of kids.. The school didnt even know he was gone. Once I contacted them the next day. Their response was, "He knows the routine for dismissal" I could have lost my son that day if it wasnt for that parent calling me. My son will not be returning back to that school.. & for parents, please get contact information (name and number) from other parents and vice versa. You never know if you may have to call one day.. I wouldn't want no parent to go through what I went through..

lovable staff caring teachers They willing to work with any situation come there way. Very helpful with parents.THEY CARE ABOUT YOUR KIDS.WHEN U AREN'T AROUND.

My student started Cuffe in 1st grade and graded last year to attend Whitney Young. The staff and especially the Principal is hands on.

The school’s use of technology in the classroom is a strength, helping kids start learning these tools early.Lenart’s commitment to inclusivity and diversity is commendable, creating a welcoming atmosphere for all students. The school’s strong sense of community is evident in its numerous events and activities that bring students, parents, and staff together.I highly recommend this school to any parent seeking a quality education for their child and to get set up for high school success.
