Academically speaking, being in the Illinois school spotlight for three years in a row says something about the quality of the teachers. Did I mention the high level of parent involvement and community feel the school radiates? Having been at the school for the last seven years I look forward to spending another five years at Longfellow. My children and I both love Longfellow and what the school has to offer us.
This school is one of three elementary schools in the school district targeted for closure. There is a tread to consolidate older schools with under 200 students to mega-schools with 400 plus students. In its present state, Longfellow exceeds academic standards, has the highest parent and community involvement and structurally, has historical architectural value. Parents and community members have mobilized to preserve this smaller, older school via public education and school district advocacy.
Longfellow has great academic programs. The students have earned state awards two years in a row. The holiday music program was alot of fun to see and for the kids as well. The gym was standing room only for it. HIghly recommend.
Wonderful excelerated program, Mrs Feddersen is 1 in a million teacher! Had to cut programs, no art:( I would recomend this school to everyone!
