Prairie Ridge High School is I think one of the best schools in Northern Illinois. From the teachers all the way down to the students. As we say, we are all one big Wolfpack Family!!
6/8/2024
The bad: At PR, this past calender school year there were problems with vaping and drug dealing on campus. Ther were also problems with vandalism in the boys bathroom, resulting in them being closed Students are not the friendliest, lots of cliques and not a very diverse school The good: I've only ever had two bad teachers and the rest have been wonderful There are plenty of clubs, sportsnm.. and volunteer opportunities at and around the school They celebrate different races and their history months and try to educate students about the different races.

Most of the teachers and the principle really do care about you. There are a few teachers that were not helpful or did not want you to succeed. They care a lot about the football team nothing else.
