The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The music program and Elgin High School is amazing. The teacher is very empathetic and works with each student individually. I love going to school here mainly for the amazing music program. Teachers are mostly really nice and understanding and make sure that if you need help with work they will do all they can to help you get it done. Classes are fairly easy to keep up in as long as you put in the effort. Sports don't do the best here and its mainly students having issues with the coaches and how they lead their team. I have really enjoyed my time here and have learned a lot. There are a few thing I would change like making it easier for students to learn about college options early. I have had to begun my college search on my own and have had little guidance apart from my mom. It would be nice to feel more prepared for what will happen senior year and what I will need to be prepared for especially in my senior project since we have had no guidance.

I have gone to Elgin High School since 7th grade. I am now a senior. Many aspects of the school have changed over the years. One thing always stays the same, the welcomeness. At Elgin High School you always feel welcome. Everyone is involved and included in every activity. There are often assemblies that everyone can take part of to become more close as a community.
