This School’s Reviews
Niche Reviews
10/18/2024
The best past about being a part of Back of the Yards IB HS is that they provide a lot of extra resources for students who need additional help in school and college. The worst parts would be how the safety in this school can sometimes be low. I would like to see this school become more strict about how students treat each other.

Great school they really need to feel welcome Lots of opportunities for students like sports, honors classes and clubs
5/18/2022
There are many supporting teachers and staff members that are willing to provide help whenever a student needs it. I also love how it is new and well-maintained. I love how they offer different academic programs to fit your needs: regulars, honors, AP, and IB (both DP and CP). Despite it being in a poor Chicago community, staff members ensure that students are safe by enforcing daily bookbag checks and metal detectors.
