The parents are VERY friendly and the teachers all want to be there. I have never seen such an organized staff and so many wonderful volunteers. They have THE BEST after school program called "club bull dog". The children are able to pick what activities they want to be in such as Karate, Yoga, Lego, dance, shutter bug-picture taking, cooking, basketball, mad scientists, chess, and the list goes on!!! Each quarter the activities switch And my boys get so excited. Growing up I remember my mom having to drive my brother and I all around town for activities after school and at Oscar mayer they have everything on site!

    They tend to brush issues under the wrong to keep a good reputation and delete their google reviews…read morefrom parents - including racism While prescott Elementary is often highlighted for awards and ratings, our lived experience tells a very different story. There are significant behavioral issues among students that are not being effectively managed. The lack of classroom control creates constant disruptions and takes away from students who are there to learn. This directly impacts academic progress and the overall learning environment. More concerning, a fifth-grade teacher told an entire class that they would not amount to anything, would not get into college, and were not talented. When this was reported to both the school and the network, it was dismissed and brushed aside. This response--or lack thereof--raises serious concerns about accountability and whether issues are intentionally minimized to protect school ratings. Additionally, morning supervision at Wrightwood Park is inadequate. Staff members are frequently disengaged, chatting among themselves rather than actively supervising students, which raises safety concerns. Finally, during my daughter's transfer out of the school, her personal belongings were mishandled. We were given only one notebook and one pencil. Her glasses, pencil case, and multiple school supplies that we personally purchased were missing and never returned. Families deserve transparency, accountability, and a safe, supportive learning environment. Unfortunately, that was not our experience here.

    My son attende Prescott Elementary and I am extremely happy. The school administration and faculty…read morehave dedicated themselves and manage skillfully to oversome challenges of its diverse community of chidlren and parents. Prescott created a highly respectful, confident and motivted body of students through persistent application of innovative educational methods. This is visible throught the yearly award winning and academic results. Thank you Prescott Elementary!

    Don't. Just don't. I know you're excited because it has "magnet school" in the name, and we were…read moretoo, but we've learned the hard way that IAMS is a deeply dysfunctional place. CPS knows this is a troubled school, and goes to great lengths to hide it (Google the Block Club Chicago articles about IAMS from 2021 to see what I'm talking about). Their LSC just held a no confidence vote in their 4th principal in 8 years, after the last one was abruptly "reassigned" to the central office in the middle of the year. This place is chaotically disorganized and growing steadily more dangerous (one "soft" lockdown so far this year). Communication is poor, grammatically incorrect and/or entirely in Spanish, despite their bilingual mission. If your child is not Latino, they WILL suffer harassment and discrimination. Teachers' kids are allowed to bully others with impunity, and appear to be exempt from the rules. Administrators actively protect bullies and retaliate against parents who advocate for their children. IAMS will boast about its parent involvement, but in reality it is run by a small cabal of *very extra* parents, and if you're not among them, you and your child are second-class citizens. There are some excellent teachers there, as well a few really terrible ones. I have witnessed a teacher shouting and using sarcasm at a class of 4th graders. Very few people seem happy to be there. Add the Cubs traffic to all this, and it's nowhere near worth it. Avoid at all costs.

    As a current teacher at Inter-American Magnet School, I can attest to its academic quality and…read moresocial impact. Our school is the 2nd oldest dual language public school in the country. Many Chicago Public Schools claim to be 50/50 English and Spanish, but Inter-American is one of the few schools actually doing it. If you want your student to be fluent in English and Spanish, send your students here PK-8. I teach an Enrichment class at Inter-American to help students get into top high schools. Every year, students graduate Inter-American and go on to attend schools like UChicago Lab, Latin, Parker, Northside, Whitney Young etc. I would say the most popular high school for IAMS students is Lane Tech- a selective enrollment high school at Addison & Western. My favorite part of IAMS is our commitment to social justice. Students learn to respect different cultures from a young age. Students learn tone proud of their heritage and to value other heritages. Great school in a safe area.

    #Hawthorne 3 yr experience. Parent's, assumed I was the…read morenanny when waiting for my child, My child by his kindergarten teacher was referred to as an 'animal', and "hell" continued from there on. Hawthorne Academy has very few teachers /staff that aren't living in a bubble and will teach and treat every child equally. Principal and other admin /faculty will be too busy with fund raising, picture taken, and presenting this school to be a place for everyone to care what is going on with the less represented population. Bottomline. Donate $10,000 you'll likely have your voice heard & your own parking spot. Give the required you'll need to either leave or conform. A school where some "educators" & Staff are nestled in a quiet, small bubble, in both location and mind #Hawthorne is lacking the exposure needed to educate ALL students . Careful what you allow to enter your child's mind. Once it's there, it's difficult to find and erase. My child and I were poorly affected by Hawthorne Academy Chicago. There are great schools, maybe this one is great for you, but for me, for my son. This school has created HELL, pain, and many nights of tears, and anxiety. I don't wish to give bias or share anything that will hinder another from a place that may be a great fit for you, so I've omitted a few experiences, but, I must be very very honest when I say, be very careful where you place your children. Don't rely on rankings and smiling faces. Be present, listen, and advocate for your child no matter where you chose. Hawthorne Academy in Chicago Lakeview is just not the place I'd personally recommend.

    My son has attended Hawthorne for 7 years. Contrary to what has been posted by a former parent, we…read morehave never experienced racial inequality at the school. It has a diverse student population with families whose ethnic roots span the globe. Each year the school has a fundraiser to provide programs in the arts that CPS has eliminated due to budget cutbacks. This fundraiser has silent auctions where parents bid as little or as much as they wish on goods and services. No pressure is put on parents to participate in this event. If someone wishes to bid $10,000 for a personal parking space in the school parking lot, ( and no..I am not that person ), I would thank them for providing enriching programs for the students that they wouldn't otherwise have. If a child has behavioral issues, there are specialists who can address the problem. A teacher's job, ( to state the obvious ) is to teach, and not allow a disruptive child to affect the quality of the education of the other 30 students in the class

    Update: we have both of our sons, upcoming 6th grade and 2nd grade, at walt disney magnet school…read moreand I just felt compelled to express my absolute joy with this school! Both of our sons have been here since kindergarten, and they are just flourishing. Living in chicago, parents can almost be overwhelmed with the amount of education options and feel stress about if they're making the right call on where to send their children. After being here so many years, we have never once questioned our decision to join the walt disney magnet school family. Whether your child is an excellerated learner or needs some extra help, the teachers optimize the true potential of each student. This is genuinely a school for every and any child and we just feel so lucky to be here. Aside from the teaching staff, the administrative team has found a way to keep a personal relationship with their families, all while managing over 1,400 students. Principal Riskus is always at every field day, concert, play, etc, and not just to show up but to engage with the kids and their families. How these teachers and administrators can be on a first name basis with over 1,400 students and families is beyond me, but they do it. We have never felt like just another name on a list despite the abundant student population. I imagine my review might seem like I work there or this is an AI response (ha!) but i truly am just a parent who loves this school. Again, I just felt compelled to express our true appreciation and cannot wait for the new school year.
