My overall experience at GLenview college prep High School was very fun. I felt like I was more involved with the schools functions and activities making me more of an introvert and being more social with my peers. This school made me feel accepted and also helped me improve in areas like academics and athletics.

In general, the school is good because many of the students learn new lessons of their academics which the school wants the teachers to improve on their academics for reading, english, science, and math. The teachers are respectful to their students and want to understand them when they are feeling down. They also help the students when their grades are below a D on their grades.

The best parts of Glenview College Prep High School would be the freedom we have here compared to other schools. The clubs allow us to take field trips and school trips for final projects of the year. The only issue is how young the teachers are and the lack of teaching most of them have.
