School with no money. Teachers need to buy their own supplies. Dirty and stressful environment to work in. Admin bullies staff--new, White leadership. Students are forced to work on IXL on-line programs for hours a day. Food is so bad that many students skip lunch. Stay away.

Poor school with bullying problems. Students sit on laptops doing computer programs alone for hours a day. Internet program IXL teaches the students, not the teachers. New admin is white in a Hispanic school. It's a mess.

The teachers in this school go above and beyond to make sure that students have access to technology, books, and field trips. Teachers write grants and reach out to organizations to supplement the budget cuts in CPS. The staff is friendly and dedicated to student achievement.
