I think the best part of Larkin is the ability to grow. The larkin community gives out so many second chances to people in order to grow, learn, and achieve their academic goals. The community focuses on helping eachother out which is proven through all the resources, clubs, tutors and more services.

Larkin is a beautiful place and it has a lot of options and opportunities like sports or music classes or programs and many more and I mostly enjoy the sports and I just wish I could get a scholarship on that but I try my best.

My daughter has IEP and the help she got from the school was disgraceful it was awful I don’t wish it upon anybody sending there kids here
8/23/2025
I would not recommend this school to anyone! If you move to Elgin and your homeschool is this one I would not recommend sending your kid to this school! You’re better off homeschool your kid or sending them to private school or not moving at all. The school is so bad that you would hate school by ju...

Not a good school, if you live in the area you should send kids to a private school.

I honestly really like Larkin, it isn't as bad as some people may think it is, it's very decent and the students here are honestly very close since it's such a caring school.
