ACS has proven in their ability to give my children (7th and 10th grade) the best education. There…read morehas been consistent improvements over the last few years in regards to how the school is ran and most importantly the educational values. Through easy research, I have found out that ACS is rated just as high academically as any private school in the area and more than most public schools. They have a 100% graduation rate and college acceptance (as well as those that decide to serve our country or by joining the trades). No school is perfect, but knowing that if there is any concern my children have, they can go to the any of the staff and can feel comfortable discussing their issues. Being able to pray with the students and have Christian values inner-twined with the education is what is most important to our family.

ACS has provided my kids (2013 grad, Junior and Sophmore) with an excellent education. As a…read morefamily, we have been blessed by our ACS family in so many ways. I'm especially thankful for the Christian worldview that permeates every aspect of a students life at ACS, whether it be academics, sports, music, theatre, etc. ACS helps to provide students with a solid foundation that they will take with them after high school.

My children both began their education as toddlers at FVMS and both completed the program in sixth…read moregrade. This is not a traditional school, they allow children to make mistakes and encourage them to find the answers. They support the children in learning how to communicate with each other in addition to teaching beyond educational standards in arithmetic, writing language science and so on. My children left Montessori and felt that the public schools were not able to keep pace with what they learned through these programs. They have both expressed that their public school experience is socially disappointing because the students are often unkind and treat each other with disrespect. While my children were encouraged to help peers there public student peers are often concerned with shaming and putting peers who are different than themselves down. Fox Valley Montessori taught my children that learning is fun, that curiosity is a value. My children learned to be respectful, they learned how to manage their work and it is serving them quite well in high school as they manage their time for finals and AP classes. This is not a traditional school, it is so much more, this school teaches your child what community is. Their Montessori education has prepared them far better than I could have imagined and I cannot recommend this school enough.

We are so incredibly grateful to have found Fox Valley Montessori School. From the very first day,…read moreit was clear this wasn't just a school--it was a community where our children feel safe, supported, and genuinely excited to learn. If you're seeking an accredited Montessori program that truly understands and nurtures the whole child--mind, heart, and spirit--FVMS is the best choice in the area. We couldn't be more thrilled with the foundation the school is offering our girls!

This place is the reason why I will never send my kids to a Catholic school. The education was…read moresubpar, the teachers were rude and condescending, and the principal was the most racist and conniving woman I've ever met. Mrs. Faxon would tell latino kids like myself to not speak Spanish and would spread homophobic rhetoric to young and impressionable kids. Their parish is also lackluster and their materials are old and outdated. Most teachers and faculty act so rude to kids and seem like they hate their jobs. Never go here.

I'll be the first reviewer…read more I have had two graduate from Marmion and one currently attending. Marmion did a fantastic job preparing my older two for college and building two fantastic men. The kids I know who attended Marmion, graduate with a professional mature demeanor then most 17-18 year olds. The school focus has changed a little in the 10 years since my first son started. The school is a bit more focused on athletic extracurriculars than in the past and seems to not have as many academic avenues for students. In the past kids were encouraged to get involved in as many athletic, artistic, and academic extracurriculars. Some coaches seem to want kids to focus more on the importance one (their) activity or sport rather than being engaged in many activities at once. The school is still great and is academically challenging, particularly when kids want to be - see honors and dual credit classes. Although my wife and I graduated from other Chicago area Catholic College Prep schools we are happy we sent our boys to Marmion. Our younger boys are excited about the opportunity to attend Marmion so I think they are sold even after attending open houses at other schools.

Two stars is generous…read more We have never regretted a decision as much as sending our child to Covenant Christian. We were made wonderful promises about the school and every one fell flat. Class size, lack of proper teaching, art, field trips and playground that was told would happen. The principal is kind but out of touch to learning and children today. She truly will be the downfall of the school. Make sure to get everything in writing and never pay the entire year upfront, you would be better off being able to walk away then trying to get a refund. Us trying to save pennies cost us. Also the good reviews below are by members of the school board. Please read them knowing this.

The facility on the inside in older and could use improvement, but for a large high school, it's not terrible, but not great either.
