I have consistently found Fox River Grove Middle School to be lacking in preparing students adequately for high school. The institution exhibits a notable absence of effective communication among administrators, educators, and parents. Moreover, the excessive distribution of detentions and the limit
Posted by a parent on 5/7/2024Our decision to relocate to Fox River Grove was influenced by the appeal of smaller schools and reduced class sizes. Initially, we were enamored with the educational institutions. Over time, however, it became apparent that the administrative decisions made by the school board sometimes prioritize t
Posted by a parent on 3/7/2024I love this school. They go above and beyond in a structured, supportive way for the kids and the parents. Helping them build a solid foundation for their future.
Posted by a parent on 10/11/2017I love this school. They are friendly and supportive. However they do not coddle the children or the parents, their goal seems to be to prepare the kids for the next step in life and not making the kids and their parents happy. They are strict and hold the kids accountable for their work and their a
Posted by a parent on 5/11/2017The principal at this school is unbelievable. I've had a "helper" for many years now who takes my children to school and back. On this particular day they locked the back door early, when she came in upset that now he was late because of their error, she was talked down to and treated like a second

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageRun don’t walk, as far away from this school as you possibly can. The principal and superintendent at this school only care about creating cliques and being seen as the “funny” guys. They are incredibly buddy buddy for all the wrong reasons. They are all talk and no follow through. Do not believe a word that comes out of their mouths. Teachers and staff are left unsupported, under paid and thrown into situations they should never be put in. It’s no wonder the turn over rate here is so high for staff. Classrooms are being cleared because of violent and disruptive students way too often and children are not able to learn. These disruptive students rule the school and everyone caters to them. There are no consequences for students who are violent or disrespectful. Parent and teacher input is not valued or respected. It goes in one ear and out the other. This school is going down hill so fast it’s not even funny. If you want your child to learn, grow and thrive in a safe and healthy learning environment, this school is not the place for them.Parent Review1y ago - Trinity Oaks Christian Academy

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageSaint Peter and Paul school is an excellent choice for parents looking to provide a solid foundation to their children based upon education, community and a spiritual guidance. The Principal, Vice President, Teachers and Staff work together as a team to try to enrich the lives of the children around them and we work as a community as parents to help support this goal.That said, we are not a public school so we may not have all of the resources that some families need or are accustom to having. We have a strict dress code, we expect parents to parent and we as parents are asked to get involved within the group and work together to make it work. So, if you are looking for a school that works together to provide a solid foundation for the future of your child, this place is right for your family.Parent Review9mo ago - Oak Knoll Early Childhood Center
