GreatSchools Rating
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.

It's a very basic school, there isn't anything cool about it and the sports aren't great, and some teachers are okay.

It's really a hit or a miss with the teachers here, you'll either get a great one or one that you totally hate. We do have a lot of clubs and events that make it easy to get involved.

Overall the experience was decent enough given the circumstances of covid. All though there was also situations that I would like to forget. Like the handful of shooting threats where we had to go on lockdown for hours because of a kid with a gun at school. Also the kid who committed suicide after physically abusing his girlfriend and everyone confronting him. There were a lot of unfortunate events throughout my high school experience but in a weird way bit brought me and my friends closer as if bonding in pain over all the fear and sadness we felt. The friendships and bonds created over this improved my school experience because even if I felt alone I had people to help me throughout it like the wonderful staff and fellow classmates. I love my friends and my high school experience even with everything bad I wouldn't change a thing because it lead me to become the person I am today. And I'm pretty proud of.myself.

Moved out of Glencoe after spending my freshman and sophomore years there, and let me warn any parents, pick another school to send your child to.

I don't go to this school but its common talk among all the students at my school, Hilhi, that Glencoe is the the worst highschool in the district. Never been there so I don't know for sure.

Both teachers and students can tend to be rude. There is a drug problem and many students don't care about passing most of their classes.

Horribly layed out. Classrooms don't have windows. No discipline. Few teachers actually care. They basically make it impossible to graduate.
