Melody Elementary School

My experience at this school on a scale of 1-10 would be an 8. They create greatness within those walls.

Terrible school and my son said they treated him terrible and make learning harder

I've been a substitute teacher at CPS for 2 years. I have observed every demographic and grade level. I felt compelled to write a review after substitute teaching a kindergarten class at Heffern. I cannot compliment the gym teacher enough! Mrs. Rathers-Clark was the kind of teacher that every teacher should observe and reflect. She did a lesson with spaceships that involved teamwork and a hula hoop that called for personal space. She had students stretch and line up, then dance as a class for a warm-up before her lesson started. She was always in control of her classroom management, every student was engaged and it was a pleasure watching such great teaching.

Putting our children education & safety first. Faculty & staff all work together to achieve these task which are trying at times but they find a way to GET THE JOB DONE!

Tilton school has a great culture and supportive teachers. They go the extra mile for their students and it shows. It is a uniform school and there is technology all over for students to learn (it is a STEM school). I see nothing but positive things at Tilton School.

This school truly needed new leadership and the students of Webster finally get a strong principal in Mr. O. He is open, strong, consistent, looking for the best programs for the children. The children of Webster deserve new leadership, the former was negative and did not understand how to properly run a school.A breath of fresh air has hit Webster and the students and faculty are all flourishing!

I am disappointed in HFM, because I was told my child wasn't ready for Kindergarten when 1st kindergarten isn't even mandatory in Illinois but my biggest reason I am disappointed in HFM because this is suppose to be a FAITH based school but they are fake in their faith and they really don't believe in the word of GOD. Who turns their back on a child just because they learn different than other students. My son is very bright and knows and have more faith in GOD and he is only 5yrs old. Then when I emailed them stressing my concerns to consider him, Ms Moore ignored me. I had hope in them but they are FAKE and money hungry I am assuming just like they assumed that my son wasn't ready for kindergarten. But GOD has better plans for us.
