I graduated last year, and honestly, it's not bad at all. The classes were challenging but prepared us for the future. I got to meet new people, who are my friends now. It's the relationships that I made that made it not bad to attend high school. There are many resources if you need help because they truly want the best for all of us.

Glenbard West Highschool is a great school which offers advanced education and a wide variety of clubs, activities, and sports throughout its facilities. I've had a very positive experience with teachers which understand discourses and always come up with some sort of solution.

Most of the teachers don’t care about you. They only care about the money.

This is a GREAT high school. You son or daughter will have an unlimited opportunity (limited only by their decisions) to be challenged, learn and grow. Anybody who complains about this school is a parent who thinks their child is perfect and then they learn they are, in fact, not, but blame their ch...
