“I’ve been in Sycamore schools from Kindergarten to Senior year,” says one recent graduate of the school district, “It has pushed me to take classes I never thought I would that resulted in finding new passions and so many friendships. Highschool has prepared me very well for college in the level of rigor. Overall, I will miss Sycamore schools very much.”
Another student sings praises about the wonderful teachers that can be found within these walls. “I have attended Sycamore since Kindergarten and I truly feel I have been prepared for college,” they say, “I can honestly say that every teacher has truly cared about me and my peers and not only wanted us to succeed, but helped us get to where we wanted to be.”
Sycamore Community Schools are able to prepare its students so well for college, perhaps in part because they focus on every individual student, expecting the most from their students, and allowing each young learner to reach new heights in their skills and knowledge.
