This school is an amazing school, my son Noah has lots of friends there and there are barely any bad kids in this school. There are bad kids but theres bad kids at every school.

You hear things but you need to see it for yourself. This is a good school. The teachers care for the students... the kids are disciplined and teachers/staff are on top of it..fun activities for the students. They are trying and it shows. Is this a perfect school? No. Are the students perfect? No. Lets face it all schools have their goods and their bads. If you hear that Magee is a bad school.. dont listen. See for yourself. You maybe surprised like I was. I have never seen my son so happy to go to school. Keep doing what your doing Magee. We support you!

Many of the previous students and parents had warned me not to put my child in this school. They were right.

A few teachers are good and try to do their best but their is no discipline at this school. The kids run wild.

The kids run wild. They show no respect to the teachers. Teachers have no support from above so they can't really be effective in the classroom. When my son was there a young girl had something really awful happen to her and it was covered up.

The leaders are just there for the money. They don't care about the kids at all. No support when there are problems. Hard to get sn appointment to see them.

Everyone is taught the same stuff. School is way behind in academics. Rated F by the state.
Posted: November 1, 2017
Kids are afraid to use the bathrooms it is so bad. Administration does nothing.
Posted: November 1, 2017
Very few kids do their homework. Teachers have to follow a canned curriculum. Homework that is assigned is nothing but busy work.

This is NOT a good environment. There is a catholic school just a few blocks away that is safer and provides an excellent education.

Thanks Maria! Maria really cares and is special. She takes really good care of all female students and will inform the parents right away if their are any issues. What I love about this school is their more focused on solving issues than writting bad things about a student in their file. Cook county schools often try to eliminate many students from having promising academic careers by what they put in a childs file. Not here they keep the files empty ad ususally only put one entry at the end of the year. In Niles they would write bad things every week and good things every 6 weeks.
