We feel we are the best kept secret located in the Altgeld Gardens community. Although we are in a low socio-economic area, we are making consistent progress both academically and socially. Once you visit Aldridge you will experience the warm and inviting atmosphere. We also have a very active Local School Council and a core group of parent volunteers.
