The security people were rude to students constantly. Theres a lot of diversity but also racism. Teachers were unethical and the environment felt severely unsafe with a lot of kids getting into constant fights, ended on hospitals and even arrested.

A+ to ZBTHS and District 126. Well-rounded diverse campus. I have been really impressed with the numerous career paths students have to explore. More so impressed with how District 126 has carefully carried out plans during this pandemic. I am a proud Z Bee mom of one son who has been flourishing academically. The IEP team and his teachers have done a great job of bringing my son's confidence up in writing and his self-esteem is well too. His academics have improved. He was given the tools needed to work right alongside his peers. The Co-taught classes are a big plus for today's classroom sizes. New Olympic size pool under construction, a new performing arts center with the works, green room, large stage. This school is like a mini tech or college campus. Only one con, students smoking in the restrooms. No books, all homework online or printouts. I am a traditionalist. I believe students needs books as part of their research and learning experience. Too much relying on electronics. These are helpful tools but can be a handicap later on in college.

Honors Classes, Theater, Choir are absolutely excellent; Students are testing very high on ACT, but our student population is very mixed, academically, bringing down our rating. Our surrounding towns are a lovely place to raise a family and buy a reasonably priced home...

I went there and had a wonderful experience and I wouldn't go anywhere else and now my son will be starting there in August of this year. Proud of him and what the school will offer him.
