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.

I have had a great experience at Romeoville High School. The curriculum has been challenging and the teachers and staff are very supportive. The only thing that I would change is maybe offering additional electives

I will say that the teachers and faculty will definitely do a lot to try and get you ready for college, they will try and find ways that will work for you and will best help you to achieve what you want to achieve. The friends that I have made are wonderful and I will stay like that forever, even the connections I made with certain teachers will remain there long after I am gone.

One thing about Romeoville High School that I enjoy is the school culture and sports. Many students come together to support our school at games and many other events. One thing that I don't appreciate about my school is how some teachers in the school don't provide enough help to students. Also how some teachers don't know how to teach the material that we are learning well. I hope for the future that the school would have a larger variety of teachers who can better teach the curriculum.

Cooperative and friendly teachers. Competitive environment. Band, DECA, Robotics club, Speech team, Maths, Drama Club and Scholastic bowl teams help in boosting the students confidence.

Though most people think Romeoville is ghetto, I went there for two years and I currently attend a very well-funded school in the area. I found RHS it to be one of the most character-building places I have ever been. A very diverse crowd, fantastic teachers.
