Namaste Elementary Charter School Reviews

 
AMAZING school. I just hope they open a high school. I have 2 boys in this school and feel so lucky to have found it. They are fluent in Spanish, very aware of their physical health and nutrition and are taught a 'peaceful people' manner in which to handle conflict. My boys feel like their teachers genuinely care about them as individuals. My 2nd grader was doing the same math I've seen CPS 4th graders doing...and doing it well! My only complaint is that this school makes it harder for the working parent to get involved but they've at least welcomed a dialogue with me on this issue. My childen are safe, well educated and truly taught from the inside out. As an added bonus, they are happy. The entire staff is warm, open and takes time to get to know each student and parent. I love Namaste

Some feel these are pro's, some feel these are cons: Founded in 2004. All year round school-breaks are 1 month in April, Dec, and Aug. Curriculum is 1 grade level above Chicago Public School standards, some kids overwhelmed may fall behind quickly-some kids do fine (each child learns and progresses differently).This schedule is ideal for busy or working parents. Yoga, health, GOURMET lunches, the teachers, activites, community, still growing. School schedule is 8:30am-4:00pm... Breakfast is available 7:30am-8:30am, there's afterschool/break programs, strict policies on tardies and 'truancy' (doors closed at exactly 8:31am), absences are unexcused if the parent is sick/unable to bring child. In many parent's opinions too much homework. Big homework packages are given on breaks. Not traditional more experimental curriculum-too much focus on conceptual learning not enough basics covered-schools that may be a good 'fit' for some kids may not be a good 'fit' for others. Overall a good school

My child loves going to school. She enjoys doing yoga every morning. She is now fluent in spanish. The school offers nothing but healthy organic meals. The principal is amazing she is very involved in the school. She even knows every kid by their name. And I love the teachers. It's just a wonderfull school.

Namaste is a wonderful school. I have 2 children in this school and I know when I leave them here in the morning I have the peace of mind that they are in good hands. I personally know their teachers. Whenever I have a question or concern I don't need an appointment. The teachers and the staff is very approachable and available. They really care for your children and you see this in your children. I don't know any other school where the principal greets every child in the morning by name. Namaste is also educating the community by providing a healthy environment. They provide healthy breakfast and lunch. The children have outdoor recess everyday and gym everyday. Namaste believes in providing your child with healthy alternatives. My children have not only healthy bodies but a healthy mind set to be productive in their classrooms. I have seen the results.
