Cook County offered many amazing AP courses that allowed me to get a head start on my college career. The teachers were always there for us, and since it was a small town, class sizes were manageable and it felt as if the teachers truly cared about our success.

Cook County High School is a very excellent school. With very personal relationships with teachers and fellow student, you gain a knowledge of everyone around you. The staff and classes they offer are great. One thing I would change is the amount of prep they give you before college.

The school is connected to a YMCA which we use often for sports. It's a tremendous asset.
