Parents! READ THIS POST! (Please)…read more As my daughter has been growing up, I have always had the slight "fear" that she needs to be in a, not good, but GREAT school. I do believe that Elementary schools do shape who they will become. This is when their minds are still wanting to absorb information and this is when they are still free-spirited. When I was looking into moving, I was trying very had to find a school nearby. My moving was dedicated to a great school district. I came across an apartment complex and found out about this school in their district. Of course, I did my research on the school before I settled on my lease. After reading about studies and reviews on this school, I gave it a chance. Boy, I could NOT be any HAPPIER. She is enrolled in Kindergarten and the transition mid-year for her was GREAT. When I had toured the school and expressed my concerned that she was transferring schools mid-year, they did take everything into account. When she attended her first week, she LOVED it. Her teacher is VERY attentive to all of her students as well as the parents (this is usually not likely). I was able to contact her teacher with any concern(s) I had via email or phone and she was VERY prompt in her response(s). Each child in the classroom was so well-rounded, as in they were go kind to each other. You were able to tell that they were well disciplined at school in order to come home and implement the same mind-set taught to them. The office staff there in the administration part was not too friendly. When I came in, I get it that I was there at 7am when they opened, but that doesn't excuse their behavior towards me. I had the reaction of "oh goodness" from the staff. I gave them the benefit of the doubt since it was really early. When I came in for several other visits, they did treat me with more respect, acknowledging that they had remembered me (*phew). Now that I have gained my "want" in the office, I realized that the school truly does care. This post could be because I'm still a Noobie to the whole parenting idea, and having my child involved in schools, but this school is truly GREAT. I'm a young mom, and I see the potential in this school to mold my daughter to be a great person.

This school has failed my cousin in ways that are absolutely inexcusable. He's a 4th grader who has…read morebeen bullied for over a year -- mocked for his weight, harassed by the same student repeatedly, and pushed to the edge mentally because Central Road Elementary refuses to act meaningfully. The bully, a 5th grader moving to 6th grade, was asked to write an apology -- and all he wrote was: "I'm sorry." The school then claimed this was "sufficient" because "he doesn't have the writing capabilities" to say more. Let me get this straight: You're telling us that a student in fifth grade, who can't even write a basic apology, is being allowed to pass to the next grade level -- instead of getting the intervention he clearly needs? So not only is Central Road failing victims of bullying, it's neglecting the educational needs of the aggressors too. That's two layers of failure. Meanwhile, my cousin -- the victim -- has had to be placed in a full-time, outpatient mental health treatment program, five days a week, because this school refused to protect him. The emotional and financial toll on his family has been immense. If you're a parent, and you care even slightly about your child's emotional safety, academic growth, or mental health -- avoid this school. The administration will ignore warning signs, excuse inadequate behavior, and sweep serious issues under the rug to maintain the illusion that "everything is fine." Nothing is fine. And the longer you leave your kid here, the more damage they might endure.

The staff/team is very involved and very welcoming of parent involvement. The child's needs are first priority, always. There are all sorts of fun activities going on throughout the school year. I genuinely feel like my children are safe and cared for when at school. My son's teacher for the past 2 years was Mrs. Theresa Maloney and she is GREAT. My daughter's teacher is Mrs. Raksha Papa-and she is GREAT too! The school psychologist is also awesome, as well as the speech pathologists and social workers. I am heartbroken that my son has to leave this school and go to John Jay next year for kindergarten (Jay is our assigned school for our residence). John Jay is also a great school, according to reviews on GreatSchools.org but I really wish my kids could stay at Juliette Low FOREVER! lol I would definitely recommend this elementary school!

The curriculum is full of fun, hands on projects from science, math, art and story time. They have an outstanding music program with two really cute performances during the year. They also have an awesome lunch program that goes from 11:30-2. My son is currently in the pk-3's class and begs me to sign him up for lunch every time we are there. My older two children love to visit and see their teachers they had.

When I was doing my research for preschools in Arlington Heights for my first born, Village…read morePreschool was at the very top of my list. I had always heard wonderful things about it from other moms in the community. We are now about to complete our first year over there and I honestly could not be happier with my choice. My daughter has grown so much, and has been so cared for along the way. There are so many hands-on learning stations for the kids to learn and explore. During the year, they've been able to learn through kinetic sand, water table, large and small motor activities, reading, writing, games, and so much more. They had a firefighter visit to teach them about fire safety, a librarian visit their school to foster their appreciation for books and reading, and they also learned about caterpillars turning into butterflies by witnessing it firsthand. I feel a school is only as good as its teachers and staff, and the teachers at Village are true gems - so warm, nurturing, and knowledgeable. They all have been at the school for many years, and they make learning so fun and age appropriate. The director of the school is also superb; a very organized woman whose door is always open and is willing to answer any questions I've had throughout the year. She does a wonderful job communicating with parents through newsletters and notes about upcoming events at the school. We are always greeted with smiles by the whole staff. You can tell they all want to be there and love what they do, not just one day but everyday. There is also a great weekly music class that the kids attend, and there are 2 music performances that the kids put on for their families. This is a great way for the kids to become comfortable in front of large groups. I highly recommend Village Preschool to everyone I meet since we've had such a positive experience there. You know it's a special place when my younger one who is 18 months never wants to leave when we drop off her older sister at school!

Amazing, talented, big-hearted teachers that give lots of individual attention to each student. Spirited and engaging athletic program. Beautiful faith formation with real attention paid to ethics and good behavior for all students.
