I graduated in 1968 and love this school and cannot wait to visit it one day if I ever get back to Illinois
Posted by a community member on 10/6/2020We love this school so much! We have two children there, and we are thrilled with everything: strong academics, close-knit school community, robust extracurricular offering. The location is great too. And you should hear where our graduates go! St. Ignatius, Trinity, Fenwick, and many other great sc
Posted by a parent on 4/12/2012My daughter attended the school for two years. I love the family values and friendliness of the staff and parents. We are non-Catholic but the religious orientation was inconsequential because they seemed to all be spiritual people & my daughter was influenced positively by that environment. However
Posted by a parent on 8/11/2011This is an outstanding school for our 2 daughters. We are not Catholic, but the teachers and curriculum are outstanding. At first, I was disappointed that there was weekly mass, but now I understand how important it is to the school. I was worried about my girls fitting in, but everyone has been won

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI have to think sometimes about my kids transitioning out of Prairie Oak as they get older and part of me wishes they didn’t have to. From the administration higher up to the social workers to the teachers to parent-support, I could not have for better. The social-emotional teaching is just beautiful. Prairie Oak has teachers my kids will never forget. I won’t either. I wish it was a middle school too, I really do! Mrs. Abrantes and Mrs. Vicars go above and beyond for the instruction, safety and well-being of the kids. I wish we could just manufacture more of these women so everyone could know how amazing they are.Parent Review6mo ago - Jefferson Elementary School

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageWe have a 1st grader at the school and she has had an incredible experience there. I'm very pleased with her teachers (last year, she had a National Board-Certified kindergarten teacher!), the classes are small and there are kids from all kinds of families: both parents in the home, single parents, college-educated, working class, Christian, other, and all ethnicities. It is a delightful place where kids are kids and engaged in completely developmentally appropriate activities, since it's Preschool - 2nd grade. This is a gem of a little neighborhood school!Parent Review9y ago - Montessori Language Academy

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageTerrible enviornment for kids to grow. Bullying is rampant in the school and has been for years. Teachers overlook aiding kids and snub their nose at them and some teachers seem to be more immature than some of the kids. The faculty have no sense of boundaries which imprints a very unhealthy expectation and understanding of how the real world works for your kids. Honestly i think public school is better than this place. Its overall a terrible experience and looking back on it I wouldve rather paid to not send my kids here. Keep in mind both me and my husband are highly educated (he has a PhD) and i have a masters. I could not think of a single redeemable quality for this schoolParent Review2mo ago - Oak Park Montessori School
