"I don't know where the complaints are coming from. My daughter has been at Kilmer for 3 years and is the only diabetic child at the school currently. Everyone at Kilmer, including the principal has bent over backwards to accommodate her and her daily needs. Her teachers have all been amazing as well as the school nurse and health assistant. As far as academics, my daughter is smart and Kilmer has done their part to make sure she is challenged and doesn't get bored. You certainly couldn't ask better from a public school. I have been surprised day after day with this school. I'm glad my daughter goes here and not the Chicago Public School System like I did. More people should be grateful that we have great schools in our district."

"Some of the teachers at Kilmer are great and go above and beyond to make sure their students learn. Others don't care. The principal allows overly pushy parents to get their way in things like who their kid will have as a teacher."

"Our son is in first grade at Kilmer and we the teachers and administators are excellent, caring and professional. The level of individual attention to each child's personal growth is above and beyond our expectations."

"The academic programs exceeded my expectations. There is great availablilty of music, art, sports and other extracurricular activities. There is a large amount of parent involvement. The faculty go above and beyond their call of duty."
