My son was struggling in 6th grade in CPS and was failing classes. The best choice we have made is sending Matthew to St Constance school. From 6th -8th grade he has improved dramatically. We owe everything to the teachers and this school. We will try to send our 2 little boys here if we can financially afford it. 5 stars.
