I was a student at Zablocki when I was a kid, and I loved it. I know I would not have been nearly as good of a student as I was without the help of all of my amazing teachers. I still remember all of their names, and saw many familiar faces in this video. Even the teachers I didn't have had an effect on me, and I owe all of the people I learned from so much.

I have had a number of my kids go there. The teachers and staff are the best at what they do. Seats in this school are priceless. Every teacher brings new and exciting things to their classrooms. It is a shame that all schools don't have this dedication to doing their best to teach every child. There is a real air of family at this school. They know all the stludents and their families.
