"I attended Onahan for 4th and 5th grade and unfortunately had to transfer shortly thereafter. I noticed when I enrolled into the next school, I was ahead of my class and my vocabulary was much more vast. This school was very diverse and well rounded."

"I was a student at Onahan 51 years ago. My kindergarten teacher was so nice. We took a walk to her house. Yes that was ok back then. I remember the good humor man coming to our playground when we were out on recess we could buy a treat from him if we wanted. Those were the good ole days. No school is perfect we all want the best for our kids. I live in the Jacksonville area in Florida. I home schooled my youngest child. For good reasons. I wanted more control over my sons educational destiny. BTW Onahan still looks the same."

"I have 3 kids at Onahan and the school exceeds my expectations. I would be lying if I said the school is perfect...it's not. I have had a times where I felt communication was lacking or a decision was poor, no school is perfect. I think it is funny that some of my neighbors send their kids to the area private schools when they have a great public school right under their nose, the scores for the school are above average I actually heard an ignorant comment that all the poor families go here because they cannot afford tuition elsewhere. Onahan is not a cookie cutter school. This is a school with diversity---and the ability to accomodate every child. There's a place for every child here. And this school has high parent involvement---which is key to success. But, if you have that snobbish mentality, then you don't fit in here. With Chicago having over crowding issues---I guess I should be happy when a family doesn't send their kid here."
