St Cornelius Elementary School

Let kids get bullied, let kids say racial slurs, don’t do anything about any of these things. If i were going to send my kid to any cps, this would be my last opiton.

great school! I have been here twice for preschool and once last year for an event, this school has definitely gotten better and it's pretty underrated in my opinion.

Bad school , no good for emotio al kids when pass grade , they have preference for kids and ypur notes, if kid dont have A or B they leave sit down . Racism too seeing in other parents and school dont make nothing.

We love Smyser. Whole family has been here for about 8 years and 6 kids, 3 graduated and went on to Taft, Lincoln Park. Teachers are awesome and super kind and full of knowledge and passion for their craft. Staff are great and really committed to the kids. Go Eagles!

My child has been hit by other students and no one notified me despite them coming home with marks and welts. The staff also tried to blame my child for over reacting or lying, despite having physical proof. Also getting them into to speech program has taken since October, and they're still not in as of April. The teacher is curt and cold to the kids at pick-up, just literally shoving them off to parents. Another classmate has bruises on their flank allegedly from a teacher trying to get them to sit. Teacher withheld reward for having a hole in my childs shoe. This is not my child's fault and should not be missing out on the school experience because I couldn't afford new shoes right away. I cannot recommend this school to another parent. This teacher does not care about the well-being and safety of the students and neither does the school for letting this continue after seeing evidence and complaints from multiple parents. I feel incredibly guilty for keeping my child at this school. If it were not for the false illusion of getting them speech and it we would have left right away.
