Independence Pre-School 200 Taylor Avenue, Bartlett, IL 60103

"Do not let your child go to this school here. Some of the faculty members and the nurse working for U46 at this school work deceptive or they are poorly trained. My child was injured under their supervision, documented twice, and they quickly tried to cover up neglect and accused my son’s mother by calling DCFS on her while he was still being held at school who showed up on our door steps unannounced without any efforts to provide a mandated report before hand from the nurse and did not make any immediate efforts to contact his parents or emergency contacts. It took videos cameras from two sources, the school and bus transportation to prove his mother’s innocence which showed he was injured during their supervision at the schools play ground. The did not provide immediate medical attention when viewed. The teachers did not do enough in getting to know our child, giving us the feeling he was being ignored and did not give him proper attention which is an assessment equally bad in protecting our child under their watch. Due to the fact Illinois law protects government funded programs under civil immunity at school districts, it is easy for U46 faculty members to exploit on this advantage leaving us parents and child vulnerable to abuse, furthermore adverse actions and corruption. Tax payer money supports this. Change is needed and liabilities for victimized families children needs to be acknowledged and fairly justified."

"Unprofessional"

"Love this little piece of heaven. Awesome staff. We have been sooo very happy with our child’s accomplishments."

"My granddaughter has gone there for a couple of years. It's so wonderful hearing her talk now and writing her name. We can actually have conversations and she loves her books. After I've read one to her for a couple of weeks she is able to read it to me, I'm so happy with this school. And they really do care about the kids."
