    "They are not tolerant of other ethnicity nor special needs children. My son was ostracized and continually labeled a bad kid namely by the principal when they were suppose to be supportive and trying to work with him via his IEP plan. He's autistic on top of having 4 other disabilities and they were not understanding at all, they just wanted to be rid of him. Thankfully I was able to find a special needs school that truly worked with him and he has made it to his high school sophmore year."

    "Wonderful school! Great staff and teachers. New principal is (so far) maintaining standards of excellence set by former principal. Very lucky to have this gem of a school in CPS system. The school is not a year behind in its curriculum (see review below). Only downside is parental infighting. A new group of parents has displaced another parent group. Unfortunately the new group is beginning to show signs of becoming like their predecessors. It's shameful behavior from both sides. Fortunately this problem is not affecting the children and their grade school experience."

    "The school''s curiculum is still a year behind private and suburban public schools. As far as being out of touch, you are excluded unless you donate substantially to the 'foundation.' A large donation amount is is also a ticket for special treatment. It can also be a free pass for kids that would be expelled anywhere else for their behavior! cps, open your eyes and take a look at nps!"

    "The negative reviewers are clearly out of touch with what is going on at this school. As a parent and an educator this school by far exceeds a typical elementary school. This school utilizes it's fund raising dollars in a exemplary way that benfits the students and teachers on a daily basis. The resources and programs available at this school are completely unlike any other Chicago Public School. The children are engaged in their learning and have acess to technology, fine arts programs and P.E. as early as pre-kindergarten. The one and only problem is that only 60% of this school's families participated in the annual appeal. This money is crucial in estabilshing and maintaining programs that funding from CPS alone would not allow. A message to those who reviewed this school negatively: Come out to see what's happening at NPS!"
