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 have personally had an amazing time at Huntley High School. Through my 4 years here, I have felt included, I developed a special bond with my teachers that feels important to me, and there are plenty of opportunities for everyone to do anything they would like to pursue here. One thing that I think can improve is I think we can do better with having more school pride about what we do.

Good facilities. Good sports but politics plays apart in who plays sometimes. School offers a lot of AP, dual credit and trade opportunities. Good school spirit.

We were enamored by the principal. He is a great recruiter. However when he's needed he's not around, unavailable, busy with other important things that bring up ratings for the school. My son has literally been bullied since day one on the bus. 3 students to a seat...that's unexceptable and unsafe,...

HHS is truly the best and its goal is "All Student Always" is carried to the core. With opportunities to make sure that each student has their OWN learning experience. Between AP, PLTW, Online, Dual Degree, and Blended offerings there is so much that ALL students can take part in. With over 50 clubs...
