We moved to Chicago from Italy 2 months ago and in these months of changes and new challenges Sief has been our happy island. Our two kids are very happy to go to school and every morning they can't wait to see their friends and teachers. Teachers and the other families welcomed us warmly and really helped us settling in: it's a great community. In Italy I taught in a bilingual school, so I can say as a mom and as a teacher that I couldn't be more satisfied.

This little school is filled with so much love and care from the teachers and administration. The focus on social skills through the lens of collaboration and building community is amazing. With a husband born and raised in Italy, who's mother is a pre-school teacher in Italy, he took one step inside La Scuola Italiana and felt at home. Our son's Italian language skills have grown tremendously in just a few months, but more importantly, we can already see a shift in his ability to process emotions and interact with others in positive ways. I love that lunch is an event every day like it is in Italy, and not just a fuel stop like it so often is in the US. While the pandemic has certainly changed things, I feel part of a very special community and can't wait til we can be even more of a community when the world rights itself!

My son is in his second year at SIEF. I’m constantly amazed at the level of love, care and attention this school gives to all of its children and families. The kids learn about self care, care for others and the world they live in. Lessons aren’t taught in a traditional manner but are taught in a fun and engaging way. There’s a strong focus on social and emotional growth which helps in all aspects of learning. Kids learn how to respect themselves, others and the world around them early. The teachers caters to the children natural curiosity. If the kids show interest in a subject that is how math, science and language will be taught, it doesn’t appear as a lesson but as natural exploration. I’m always amazed at the amount of knowledge my child develops around these topics and how he’s able to apply the knowledge in other areas. It doesn’t hurt that the food is catered by Eataly (pre pandemic). The kids are taught Italian the way language is naturally learned. Italian language and culture is integrated into their daily lives. I can’t say enough about this school, it’s truly a gem.
