"The school's curriculum is not very competetive for today's children. A parent would hope that their child would leave Sunny Hill with a minor capability in reading and writing in 1st grade, yet in Sunny Hill School's environment our son did have that edge. The play ground is very nice, some grafiti adorns the slides, but where doesn't that occur?! The baseball mound needs some upgrading, and parking is difficult. Though we were not pleased with Sunny Hill, I know parents who were. Angeline Lee, parent."

"I have my 3rd child in SunnyHill. We moved here in the late 80's from the Glenbard dist. My older sons were attending SunnyHill in the 90s, then and now the BS district has high standards, and expectations implemented in each of its schools. What I see as a parent and a former bus driver for the dist. is all the schools have the same curriculum, and quality of teachers. The powers that be have implemented a program that encourages the Hispanic children to speak their native language. They are slowly taught the English language over the 6 yrs from Kdgn. to 5th grade."

"Great School! Wonderful teachers. I agree with the previous reviewer that the neighborhood is mainly Hispanic but that doesn't mean we don't speak English. You should not judge. I live on Papoose, am Mexican and speak fluent English."

"We back to Sunny Hill and our son will be attending in the fall of 2005. I myself went to Sunny Hill back in the 70's. Though in the Barrington School District, Sunny Hill and Woodland schools are overlooked for funding. The neighborhood is primarily hispanic, and a good portion of the curriculum is taught in Spanish. If you are not of hispanic/el salvadorian/puerto rican descent, you should not move to the Carpentersville area. It is very, very uncomfortable being a stay at home mother with no one to speak English with."
