Roberto Clemente Community Academy

I went to Clemente way back in the day, and have done a few things with them over the years as an adult. I think the school gets a bad rap but is actually not bad at all. You have kids from all over the Chicago land area and the school is really upgraded over the years. And the peope who seem to have negative comments obviously never went there. I think that most of the time, the gentrification plays a key role in TRYING to deminish the school, but guess what? Its not going anywere and has gained momentum.
Roberto Clemente is a school that does well in the Community, but of course you have JERKS who just move in and think they can get the school out of this neighborhood. Kids will be kids so stop with the negativity because jealousy is such a bad disease. Its not a bad place, but you need to go there to experience it. They’re steel band is ALWAYS on top nation wide, what do you have to say about that.

I this a public school or a church? Both? Whatever happened to the separation of church and State? Anyway, the people flocking there clog all the parking spots around and love to litter on my street. Not cool!

Chicago public schools are not the greatest. Although, I learned alot here in my junior and senior years of high school. I graduated from this h. s I really looked forward to my history class. I was in many clubs including president of Key club, a mentor, swim team, poetry express, the Clemente Journal, student congress and J.R.O.T.C
