Walt Disney Magnet school is an exceptional middle school in the uptown area of Chicago.Being a magnet school, it does provide great resources that barely any other middle schools in Chicago provide.For the most part the teachers are descent but it doesn't seem like their standards for hiring teachers is high enough. And, like most CPS schools, the food is usually pretty bad. But if you ignore the food, Walt Disney Magnet is a great school in CPS

I love the school as a whole. As a graduate from Disney I brought along a lot of life lessons. At the school I was pushed to do my best and work hard to become better. The school is really diverse and having CAC programs really allowed me to learn more about other ethnicity. The teachers there were really supportive and made sure I was ready for college and wouldn't have any doubt. The school made sure I was safe at all times and kept clear of any danger.
