Excellent school. Classes are rigorous and demanding. The school prepares students very well for college. For the most part, teachers are kind and accommodating. My only issue about going here was the toxic student environment. Also, diversity is lacking. Although it's there, the diversity is not nearly as prevalent it is at other schools in the city.

I love the resources the school makes available to the students. The teachers and faculty make sure the students know that they want them to succeed. No matter the subject you are having trouble with, the teachers always remind you of their free periods and other clubs that they can turn to. I also like the school's location. It is close to downtown and to UIC, so it kind of gives you that college campus vibe. You can find many places to visit or eat at after school.

Most teachers are passionate about teaching and helping students. Some are biased and you really have to watch your kids grades and question when you suspect unfairness. The school culture is competitive and is a sink or swim atmosphere. It is quite expensive to attend, even the food. You could get...

If you continue to pay your tuition and donation checks, not rock the boat and be willing to settle for a values system that sorely misses the mark, then a rigorous albeit hypocritical, intolerant educational experience exists that sadly does not consistently teach the values of faith, justice, love...
