When we walked in to Everest Academy about 3 years ago we were looking for a school to start kindergarten. After an hour there speaking to staff and parents we pulled our child out of preschool and enrolled him mid year at Everest. It is the best decision we could have made. We have a secure, confident, child who can not wait to get to school every day. Not only is he receiving an education that can not compare to other area schools, he loves his school and the faculty. We happily drive 40 minutes one way to take him to school everyday knowing that when he gets there he will be well cared for and well educated. Every parent wants the best for their child and choosing Everest is exactly that.

As a mother of two children, the choice of where to send your most precious gifts is a hard one. As soon as I walked through the doors of Everest Academy, I knew this was the only place for my son and daughter. The outstanding education and academics is only one reason...their emphasis on building character for our future leaders is way above standards!! The teachers and staff assist you, the parent, in guiding them to be charitable, loving, and well rounded young adults! Bravo, Everest!!!

Everest Academy in Lemont, IL is a hidden treasure! I'm thrilled to know that the Everest community (faculty, staff, students and parents) have been very successful lately in getting the Everest message out to the larger community so that we may all share in the treasure that Everest brings to everyone, and the students in particular. I love the curriculum, the school culture/climate, the families and the overall "warm" discipline and attention that each child receives. I have done educational consulting for approximately 10 years (also over 10 years teaching experience in the field of Education) and I believe that Everest encompasses all of the "State of the Art" instructional strategies with a top-notch curriculum. I highly recommend Everest Academy!

My wife and I could not be happier with Everest Academy. The teachers and other instruction support staff truly dedicate everything they have for each and every student. This dedication coupled with an extraordinary learning environment makes this school second to none. I would highly recommend this school.

Outstanding school! The instructional staff is exceptional. Middle school can be challenging, but by engaging with the students while instructing the basics and solid moral choices, everyone grows. Students are genuinely excited to learn and edger to excel. The curriculum and technology the school offers with smart boards and laptop computers are great. There are many activities for the students to participate in and just about every month there is a Family Fun night reinforcing that school and family are working together for the children. I cannot say enough good things about every aspect of this school. I transferred my middle school son over and only regret I didn’t do it sooner! Middle school can be challenging, but by engaging with the students while instructing the basics and solid moral choices, everyone grows. BEST SCHOOL EVER! THANK YOU!!

I couldn't be more impressed with the school as a parent. I am so grateful I chose this school versus any other catholic or public school in Lemont. It was a difficult decision in the beginning, since I graduated at SS Cyril, was married there and baptized all my children there. I picked this school because of the very small class size. Now that the year has gone by, I have no regrets and know that this is the BEST school in the area. Not only do I love it, but my kids don't like weekends because they don't get to go to school. I highly recommend EVEREST!!!

Everest Academy is a FANTASTIC school. The faculty and staff are excellent and have dedicated themselves to providing the best environment for our children both academically and spiritually. We would highly recommend Everest Academy.

We send our children to Everest because they take care of them as family. My 6 year old still runs in to school every day with excitement to see his friends, and my 3 year old would go on weekends if she could. The curriculum is right on, and both my children are excited to learn and share. I didn't realize that my husband and I would be just as excited to be part of the Everest family as the kids. It really is a place to feel welcomed and cherished for just being involved in your kids' scholastic life.

Excellent school and staff. We moved from the public school system looking for a better education for our son. He comes home talkng about what he has learned and how great the teachers are not all the drama.We wish we moved him there sooner!

Everest is the best. We send our three children there and next year we will send our forth. From a top notch academic program to great teachers/ faculty and wonderful families. We highly recommend this school!

The advanced curriculum, the small class sizes (not more than 12 kids in either boys' grades), the enforced discipline, and the personalized attention make Everest Academy the best place for educating tomorrow's leaders.

We started at Everest after spending over a decade at another school. My children were nervous to switch schools, but the transition could not have been easier. The teachers, students, and staff welcomed us to the Everest family. The academics are challenging without being overwhelming, the Religious formation is second to none, and the Character Education Program is woven throughout the curriculum so my children are being challenged to grow in virtue each day. The faculty supports us as parents and works with us to form our children into responsible leaders. The teachers and staff provide a caring, nurturing environment where my children feel at home. They have both grown in confidence, independence, and spiritually since coming here a few months ago. In addition, Everest provides both social and spiritual opportunities for the parents. I highly recommend you experience the Everest advantage.

You initially select a school based on academics or extra curricular activities or even the religion, but you stay because of the experience. Over the past 3 years Everest has exceeded every expectation we had, and offered us so much more than I could have anticipated in the sense of community, genuinely caring about our children and family, providing dynamic character education, anticipating the needs of the future and even expanding the art & sports activities. How many other schools can you visit a playground in the middle of the day and see the Dean of Students playing tag with the upper grades. And the kids love it! This year we are confidently enrolling our daughter there as well.

Love this school. Love the families. Love the faculty/staff!

I recall touring this school before it had its new site. I was appalled when one of the students was crying in the hallway and no one tried to see what was the problem. The dean giving us the tour kind of ushered the boy away.
Looked like the students were in military school. I didn't see many smiles on the students faces.

Everest Academy is truly outstanding in terms of the education and, more importantly, the values and life skills learned. It is such a relief to know that my children have an environment like Everest to grow in everyday instead of the toxic situation I know exists elsewhere. Thank you to all the teachers and staff at Everest for the work you do with our children. And to the other Everest parents, thank you for being so open and inviting into the Everest community - we have made some great new friends!

Hands down the best school to send your child to. Especially if you want your child to grow in virtue and leadership among many other values. I have never seen a school have so much love pooring out doors like Everest. All of the staff at Everest truly show what it means to be a mentor and a true teacher. Just stop in for a tour and you will know exactly how I feel. Go Everest! Sincerely, Josh Lambert (Parent of two at Everest)

what is Everest literary put it is a school but if you really care it will put your children into a web of truth and keep them form falling into the careless coruscation of the public school. even if you son or daughter or even you aren't catholic they are very understanding and will not force it down your child's tarot like other schools. this school is a place filled with the higher learning that will prepare you kids for the years to follow
