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.

Minooka as a whole has helped me not only grow as a person but as an individual in a bigger community.

We moved to Minooka for the schools. Now, I’d sell my house just to move my kids out of the schools. Seems to be that if you are a “chosen student” be that a parent who has “friends” in the district, or the right athlete, or the high achieving students that require little support, then Minooka is fo...
