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.

The high school campus is very open, and it is nice when it's good weather outside but can make it awful if the weather is not cooperating. The teachers vary but typically are decent. There is a large focus on advanced classes and college preparness.

It saddens me to read the negative reviews. My review is not fake as I have had 2 children go through the Oak Park School system and I am nothing but thrilled.

Wonderful school. They have a fantastic new principal and a new Superintendent, both of whom seem to have re-energized the campus. The athletic programs have gotten quite competitive, and campus always seems to be buzzing after school with some activity or sporting event. My kid loves going to schoo...
