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.

I feel that Arlington Heights is a good school, if you are a dedicated student and work hard you will have a good experience. My best experience in Arlington heights has been this school year because now that I am being a little more involved in school I have noticed how teacher care for you. Teachers want to see there students succeed and if you demonstrate that you are capable working hard in class teachers respect you. My math teacher has helped me a lot this school year I am bad at math and she helped me understand math better. Now I am not as scared of math as I was before I found math fun at times. I don't really have a worst experience in Arlington Heights but some changes i would like to see is for there to be more cutural in our school. I would like to see more people in our school supporting different culturals and stop racism. Hopefully that will change eventually sadly racism still happens till today.

I have loved my experience at Arlington Heights. I could not imagine being anywhere else and being as happy as I am with my school. Arlington Heights and it's culture has made me feel a sense of school pride that I never thought I would experience. All of the teachers I have encountered have been great to have class with and work with. We really are given every opportunity and every resource possible to succeed in our education and futures. Everytime I hear anyone say they don't like their school I cannot understand it and couldn't see how anyone would dislike being at Arlington Heights.
