Icci Academy

Horrible school and environment please stay away from this place

while writitng this i have graduated a few years ago from this school and have attened this elementary school from first to eight grade. The assignments done at school truely helped prepare for high school becuase it helps being up reading levels. They can provide more support in the math section. The teachers are alright. They do well with providing consouler support and social emotinal learing and also help accomdating students (at least from what i've seen becuase I myself did not have accomdations.)what really gets me is the community of kids that go here. They are rude and disrespectful and are bullies. This can be observeded THROUGHOUT the grades starting as early as 4th. They sell and distrubt things kids cannot have till they are 18 .They bully people and harrasment happens often. This school will give your kid insecurities and can change their behavior. Children often model the behavior of those around them. If disruptive or aggressive behavior is normalized (which it is between the kids here) they can adopt similar patterns to fit in or protect themselves. so its no wonder they are turn aggresive becuase they are surrounded by such behavior for 40 hours a week. Do not send your kid unless you want this

I was here for pre k a long while ago and from my experience, the teachers are not great. I had this teacher and she hated me for no reason. I gave her a flower this one time and she got MAD at me! She got mad at me for everything. I moved schools after pre k so yeah. Try to find a different school, especially if you have a bad teacher.

This School is a front that's really a failure for children! There is NOTHING really geared towards Engineering or STEM. They lie about the students grades and scores in order to make the school seems as if they're teaching the kids. CPS IS A MESS! PLEASE Stay engaged and look for private or home school for your children!

My son started in PK3 at age 4, and every year he’s grown into a confident learner and a kind, respectful person. The teachers and staff truly care, shoutout to Ms. Marta, Ms. Patti, Ms. Rettelle (honestly all the teachers!) because they don’t just focus on academics, they teach real-life values too. The small class sizes make a big difference, allowing teachers to give each student attention and support you just can’t get in larger schools. It’s a place where kids thrive both academically and personally. Area of improvement would be more parent involvement and engagement to continue to support school groups like Parents Club, the School Advisory Board, and Athletic Clubs, that support the teachers and staff, directly impacting the children. Highly recommend!

"I regret to say that my experience with ICCI Academy has been overwhelmingly negative. The school fails to meet basic educational and empathetic standards.1. **Lack of Understanding from Teachers**: The teachers at ICCI Academy often display a lack of empathy and understanding towards students. They get frustrated over minor issues like students forgetting items at home or not comprehending questions immediately. This creates an unwelcoming and stressful environment for children, especially younger ones who may cry and are met with anger rather than support.2. **Poor Education Quality**: The education level at ICCI Academy is disappointingly low. Many teachers seem unqualified and lack the necessary skills to effectively engage and educate children. They even get mad at young children, including those as young as six, for behaviors that are completely age-appropriate.Also there is no support for Students with Disabilities4. **Safety Concerns**: While safety at ICCI Academy is generally okay, it is not perfect. There are areas where the school could improve to ensure a more secure environment for all student'sOverall, ICCI Academy needs serious improvements in teacher training, educational quality, and inclusivity. Until these fundamental issues are addressed, I cannot recommend this school to other parents or students.

Many improvements are going on at the school. The atmosphere is very caring and when people walk in they can feel that, and they let us know as well. Come join the St William family. Stronger together.
