If I could give this school zero stars I would.

I wish that my daughter hadn't decided to go here, she had the opportunity to go somewhere else. She was registered and classes all set up for her to start school but had a falling out with a friend and said she wanted to switch to Kennendy. If you Google this school you will find a few stories of these terrible situations but they aren't all there in the news and I'm not talking about FB news feed. Almost every single time I am at the school there is a fight. And no that isn't normal. There is a huge bullying problem too! My daughter that graduated last year was a victim and even though it was reported and the police were in the room at the time when they told the student to stop or else they would step in it still went on. I'm not posting this to "cry/whine" about the school but to help other parents.

I am a happy and successful graduate of Reavis High. It offers more than just a place to fulfill…read moreyour pre-college requirements. It may not be the ideal place of higher educational accomplishments on your list of credits for those seeking some pencil pushing no talent work environment. But for those who know what they want, and are aware of the real world and it's requirements, it offers more than any Ivy League, high brow institution can even begin to. Personally I consider myself beyond successful with accomplishments acquired only through being taught what the real world is like and how to survive in it. I'm not knocking the brainy ones who have worked hard academically to achieve their respective degrees in their desired form of work, who may have also claimed Reavis as their Alma-mater. But I am here to defend the place where I got to realize, and learn, what I am capable of in order to survive in American society. From first grade on I never "fit in" to the accepted curriculum, and was "tolerated" at best, by the teaching community. Until I got into the halls of Reavis where the world opened up for me and I was not only with people of the real world, both student and teacher, but had choices no one knew were lurking in my little brain. I was opened to being able to express and expand the genius concealed inside what the academics said to my parents "Al does not belong here." It was taken as "this kid has a problem" not "He's too smart for this type school." Until I got to Reavis I struggled with fitting into the meaningless and unfruitful forms of education that was offered to the general community. At Reavis my life exploded into the word "opportunity". Yes I had to take what the educated of society told my parents I had to take as classes, but getting that out of the way as quickly and easily as I could I looked forward daily to attending first the basic industrial arts classes and then on to the real shop hands-on classes where I excelled. Where I learned from great men like Caroll Repasey and Bob Moser and others I can't remember at the moment, who could have made twice the money out in the real world. They had a desire and quest to teach those who were willing to learn what they needed to excel in the real world. Money was not the object for these men, as mentioned, they taught me "how to learn" not "what to learn". I can tell you from a lifelong experience with men who have accomplished the "how to learn" that conquering the physical world through "hands-on talent" and being confident in this sort of self knowing has a lot more to offer than book smarts alone. I admire and praise those with doctor's degrees and diplomas that proclaim their dedication to their chosen form of work, but Reavis High School claims more successful and self satisfied individuals because of it's dedication to the education of young adults than can ever be counted or tallied up. I hope and pray, for the sake of society, that Reavis has not changed it's curriculum.

Grimes consistently rates well on local and national rankings and test scores average higher than the Chicago average. A new artificial turf playground and field were installed in May of 2014. The naming of the school seems a bit unclear. It may be named after a man who served many years in the US Navy. I do know it has NOTHING to do with the two Grimes sisters who were abducted in Chicago and their dead bodies found in Willow Springs. If you have additional information please share it with me.

Gorman, Lynch, Rezek, Fowler, (f)Hynes, (m)Hynes, Br Mahoney, Mr Scott…read more Some of the greatest teachers I have ever had the honor to be graced by their methods. Fortunately, I had them over a four year period and took them for other classes. Sadly, most have moved on and retired- Gorman, Lynch - others I've lost contact with- the rest- but their legacy lives on. Walk down the E wing and you can see Lynch's closet where he smoked three cigs during our testing sessions. Or the indentation on the lockers from Gorman's golf club. Or you can hear Freyer say 'c'mere sonnnnn' six times so he can yell at you about your polo not being tucked in. Or the obnoxious smell and piss poor lighting of the Dwing. Or the overly bright C wing which had Fowler deal from the deck. Subconsciously, I believe that's why I like playing cards so much...because I got called on so many fucking times in his class especially when I was day dreaming about being in Gorman's class instead of Trig. B wing had Br. Mahoney who is the undisputed lightweight champ of the brothers. Mr Scott had such great enthusiasm for StL that it was a shock to me that I had heard he left. His legacy is one of playing an active role in the community- find a program that he didn't help think of or handle. In 02 the administration decided to erect a moto above the student entrance/exit- Leave as a Leader. I thought it was a bullshit moto...leave as a leader ha! But it didn't dawn on me until I was away for quite awhile and swung in for a visit to see if Gorman was around. I came in as a boy in 98 with a wickedly bad pubic-y mustache and left in 02 as a man...a grizzled man, but a grizzly leader.

Classes were for 45 minutes, 3 times a week, and are usually pretty small in size.

i went here for grade school and I occasionally come here for Sunday service…read more So, aside from the typical father Paul sermons where he repeats the same, nearly exact sermons from last year, this parish is on the low end of ok. Still with just-graduated teachers and support staff, this (current) staff really doesn't boast any super qualities to place it above Daniel or Kedzie. Church service is all right with the new pastor, but just that- all right. typical and mundane service/reflection. The school will provide the basic foundation but really nothing too spectacular; especially coming from a jaded Catholic. Would I come here if my folks weren't invested in the parish; most likely not- too drab and sleepy. If you are big on tradition; then this is it. :edit 12/27/07: After seeing Fr Paul repeat the same Christmas homily for the past 14 years, I've boosted this up two more stars. why? tradition. every Christmas you can expect to hear Father Paul talk about the Pacific Coast Highway trip with 3 other priests. A long road trip with a stubborn driver wanting to milk out as much driving time as possible has lead to them trying to find a motel for the night but having no luck. Equating that with the story of Mary and Joseph still is funny, even though Fr Paul has lost more than a few steps in his story telling/homily.
