I have two children enrolled at the Hellenic American Academy. HAA is the only accredited English and Greek dual language school in Illinois. That means that when my children graduate, they will essentially earn a double diploma. I am so grateful to the entire staff for providing an environment that promotes critical analysis and problem-solving skills from an early age. My children love going to school here. Students are respected as individuals despite their age and are taught to work together and celebrate each other's successes. My oldest loves the after school advanced math cessions that are offered three times a year. Add in before and after care and what else can a working parent need?! I couldn`t ask for a better environment for my children's education to start in!
