GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Illinois is a good school and my children have thrived here. Although I do think that staff could go a bit further in making certain that students are doing well both academically and personally and understanding any other issues going on. Other than that this is a nice school and a nice environment...

My daughter began 2nd grade at Illinois school last year. I absolutely love this school! The curriculum is great. My daughter attended a catholic school for pre-k and 1st grade and I must say that she learned a lot more at Illinois school in one year than she did two years at the private school.
