I would rate this school as 5/5. My child has had an incredible time being here and I am so happy with not only her academic growth, but her emotional growth as well. The school is very inclusive and provides a healthy environment for all students to succeed in.

Poor. I have been talked down to, under-impressed with order, completely freaked out by another incident that happened. We just moved here and I feel as though I want to move again. The incident that set me over the top was, I told the front desk I needed my girls to ride the bus home for the first time today because I couldn't leave the house. The said that was not a problem, however one of my kids showed up at the front door but the other didn't. I started to freak out not knowing where my second child was. Come to find out, the bus driver does not allow Kindergartners to get off the bus unless the parent is there at the bus stop. Information that would have been awesome to know. Point was I was unable to leave the house and we are only 5 houses down from the bus stop. I thought it could have been easy but this school made it outrageously difficult.

We love Oak Brook and our experience has been positive for both our kids. The staff is courteous and helpful. We like direct access to the principal and vice-principal on all student matters. The open door policy is much appreciated. The school has new classrooms and lockers for students. Most teachers are great!

Oak Brook is a great school with great facilities. I'm not sure what the old review from 2005 was about teaching from trailers. The building is well designed with "pods" for each grade level that are more than spacious enough. My experience with the teachers, staff, and principle have all been excellent. Oak Brook / Parkway is the best school district in the area. There is also a strong sense of community at Oak Brook among parents and great events organized by the PTA. Parkway also offers full day kindergarten for free which has produced increase literacy rates among students.
