Minooka Jr High School

Terrible. Absolutely terrible. My child has disabilities and this school is clearly not a safe place for them. The teachers are impatient and rude, the iep has been all but ignored every single year in this district as no teacher yet has been even remotely prepared to deal with it.

My experience at this school was horrible. I learned that the admin takes problems way too far and over exaggerate them a lot. For example, I carved something into a urinal divider and they gave me an out of school suspension. I should have got a Saturday detention or other, Not an out of school suspension. While I was talking with one of the principals they tried to get me out as fast as they could and move on. While I was talking he was opening mail and reading it not paying attention to me and nodding his head once in a while. The admin here is just terrible. The teachers at this school are also bad. I was struggling in math and asked about R.T.I. and they said no as fast as they could and just didn't want to listen. I have never been to a worse school. This is something That should not be happening in schools. I though they care about the students learning, apparently not at all.

I've had multiples children attend this school and it only gets worse as the years go by. Bullying is at an all time high and nothing is being done to fix the problem and no discipline happens when bullying happens.

My son has been struggling through this school with an IEP for two years. There is a huge emphasis on timeliness of work over quality of work. When a student has an IEP, it is quality that should be striven for. Plus, those in charge of writing the IEP are more focused on explaining your child to you, than they are of listening to what your child needs. So glad this mightmare is coming to an end.
