St. John's Northwestern Academy has been an outstanding experience for our daughter. Being a…read moreprivate school with tuition, it has been well worth it any monetary sacrifice. Since starting in January, she has exceeded all of our expectations academically, personally, and socially. The structure, leadership, and supportive environment have helped her grow in confidence and maturity in a very short time. She has become confident, and so much more happier attending school. We are extremely grateful for the positive impact the school has had on her development and future.

I am a very old graduate of St. John's. As a matter of fact, I attended St John's way back when it…read morewas just called St John's Military Academy. I was blessed to have been sent there by my parents "to straighten me out". It was truly, the best thing that ever happened to me... not that I thought I needed straightening out. St. John's created the environment where I could concentrate on the important on coursework and sports that I needed and/or enjoyed. We marched to breakfast, lunch and dinner. We marched to church (or were bussed to the church of our choice.) I attended for three years and it became the most important three years of my life. My Latin teacher taught me how to think and how to obtain my goals in life. I loved math, biology and physics. I was captain of the gymnastics team. It was an absolute positive experience. I graduated in 1959. I attended college (Engineering), then joined the United States Coast Guard. They sent me to US Navy Flight Training and I became a Coast Guard Air/Sea Rescue pilot for 7-years. United Airlines then hired me to fly for them. After 15 years with United, they brought me into upper management where I Worked and flew as a Flight Standards Captain, flying Boeing 747's around the world. I flew until age 60 (Mandatory retirement age back then), with over 20,400 hours of flight time. Thank you St. John's! You made that all possible. I have two younger brothers who also graduated from St. John's and they both were as successful as I was in adult life.

I have been to Madison West for a number of athletic and non-athletic events. The school is older,…read morebut is clean and tidy inside. They have managed to get quite a few classrooms, media and other activity rooms into such a small urban footprint. We were there for a varsity basketball game and had a lot of fun. It was $5/adult for the game and they offered a variety of snacks at the concession stand throughout the event. The concessions were reasonably priced for everyone to enjoy. There was plenty of bleacher seating for the game. Home team and guest team were able to sit in designated areas. The cheer leading squads from both teams were entertaining to watch and lifted the spirits of their respective crowds. Reggie the mascot was not in attendance for West High and that was a little bit of a bummer. The kids like to see Reggie and get their photo taken. This high school offers top notch classes with great instructors. They have quite a variety of non-academic opportunities for our students too. Lots of clubs and athletic activities to get involved in. The graduation rate is high and the rate of students who go (and complete college level academics) is also very high.

People have been telling me that Hononegah is at the top of some list for best...I dunno, best…read moreschool in IL or something like that. I graduated in 2005 and no, it fxcking isn't. Don't get me wrong, I miss high school...but when you get a little older, that's normal. It doesn't matter if its the best school or the worst. Hononegah is somewhere in between, but closer to the latter. Its a good facility and all, but the younger teachers are sort of uninvolved, run-of-the-mill douchebags. I mean, go to a bar and there's a decent chance you'll see your old chemistry teacher spilling a beer on some freshly 21-year-old girl, trying to take her back to the condo. Rockton-Roscoe is a pretty OK place to raise kids because the cops are insidious asshxles, fresh out of the academy, so they keep shxt locked down. Besides Walmart, Hononegah is the best thing Rockton has going for it, and that ain't sayin' much.

East Side Sharks against Poynette played at LaFollette High School. I have done my share of…read moretraveling to different schools but this was my first time here. What was cool was they had 3 football fields next to each other. Each team was practicing on the two outside fields and then moved to the middle field to play their football game. As they played the teams for the next game up were able to practice on the two outside fields. This game was not pretty but it wasn't expected to be. The East Side Sharks are City Street savvy whereas the Poynette kids are country bumpkins. Surprisingly Poynette kept up in the first quarter but it went downhill fast as Poynette player after player were hauled off the field with injuries. One East Side Shark body slammed a Poynette player right in front of me and I thought the kid broke his neck the way he came down and laid there. I heard him say he couldn't move his leg but it turned out to be a knee injury which is bad enough for 7th graders. The only downside to these "practice" football fields is that there were no score boards to tel what quarter it was or the score. I heard one referee state at one point that it was 2 minutes to half time yet it seemed like 20 minutes by the time it got there. But again, with all the injuries the game did move slower. At the end the score was something like 14 to 42 or more. Gotta love those youth football games.

I could go on and on, but I'm gonna end it here: don't go to this school if you value your kids mental health. try monona grove or something on the west side instead.
