If you attend this school, you will be ready for college and managing the issues involved with larger schools. It is imperative that students look for ways to self-advocate and imperative to get involved in clubs or other activities. Parents will need to be more involved to help with a 4-year plan to use the many options available at the school. The music program is excellent in all areas, choir, orchestra and band... the athletic opportunities are strong (although if you are a casual player, you may not make Varsity or JV)... the clubs can sometimes fill up too much and they have to have try-outs. It can be frustrating to be 'locked out' of an opportunity, but it is good learning for life in general. Best wishes as you choose high schools!

I've been going to Madison for 6 years and it's the best school EVER. They have amazing fundraising…read moreprograms and clubs. Lots of teachers treat their kids to parties if they behave. Madison has the most wonderful staff in the world. They're just the right amount of sweet and strict. Gene Sikorski, the principal for over 25 years, just retired this past year. The teachers are always trying to help their students as much as possible. They are always positive and never ignore their students' questions or requests. The best education in Wheaton, bring your child to Madison. You won't regret it.

Glenbard South is the smallest Glenbard, but they are an amazing school…read more I transferred there in Feb2013 and I just graduated this June. They offer a variety of classes for being such a small school. The teachers really know what they are doing and are very knowledgable on their subject. My favorite part about South is their special education program. They are a small school, and they do a great job integrating the kids into the school by having them walk the hallways to class instead of keeping all the kids hidden away in a far-off hallway. They accept special needs kids from outside of their district and can take in kids from neighboring Glenbards. Also, GBS has a variety of sports (their football team is something to brag about) and extracurriculars for kids to do, and many kids do more than one thing. I personally was on the dance team, key club, spanish club, and best buddies and had a great time on all of them. As for the kids, I'd say MOST of them are nice. It's such a small school, so there will be a lot of cliques. Coming in the middle of my Junior year was not ideal, but the kids in my grade were really welcoming and I ended up making a lot of friends that year and even more in my senior year as I got to know everyone. Overall a good school to go to. GO RAIDERS

I just graduated from here There are great academics here, at least for honors/AP kids- the Regular…read moretrack is mediocre. It helps that the school is so small, so classes are a bit more cozy and personalized. There are lots of active extracurriculars in a variety of fields, including some (not sports) which regularly make it to State competitions. It is a bit clique-filled, but if you went to Glencrest (as 95% of the population here did) it shouldn't be a problem, as you'll have found a group to talk to already. Even if that isn't the case, it's not that difficult to fit in with a little effort, as the many extracurriculars can help you find people with similar interests. One star off for the administration- they started off not so bad, but now they're cracking down on harmless senior pranks, eliminating traditions because there's the slightest hint of danger, and pushing kids into AP classes they aren't prepared for and not letting them drop the classes when there's a problem. The missing star's also because the college advising is mediocre at best- if you want to go to U of I or COD, you're set. If you're interested in other state schools, or a few nearby privates, they can help. Otherwise, the counselors are clueless. Overall, though, this place was a great fit for me.

I have no issues with any of the students at Glenbard East. I placed a general inquiry call and spoke personally with the lovely Mr. B. He is in the Office of Operations. I am very thankful for his time. Unrelated to my call, I was informed that they are staffed with 11 Security Guards, and over 200 Security Cameras. As I went to HS back in the day of Typing Class for females only, and an outdoor smoking area for students and teachers, this was all very pleasant to learn.

School lied and said it happened once…read morebut wouldn't show me the footage of the bus that was already separated by gender due to how bad it was. Be sure to FOIA you school bus videos every once in awhile to see how your own child acts as well as others. I've never heard a child talk with such vulgar language at such a young age. My child was jumped 4 times for the 20 min bus ride!!! Bus driver didn't see it. The super and principal had a meeting of which I reordered with permission. They said if my child ever felt unsafe to raise her hand and she could spend the rest of the day in the principals office. It took alot to get a monitor on the bus, even then with them having the school bully sit in front of her to the point she would cry and be terrified to be on a bus she was homeschooled. The staff lies straight to the parents faces. They do upgrades on the schools but only for staff areas not for student areas. They had "square fans" one per room, flys all over bathroom areas smelt rotten, as well as their "portable fan"... "it stays in the lunch room so they can cool off picking up lunch". They stated it would be moved room to room. They do not cancel school or call home when your child is having heat stroke or has to be carried to the nurses office for immediate care. As someone certified I was appalled. They got so upset with my FOIA requests that they started using my initials only. They will bad talk parents for showing up to meetings with concerns. Beware. They do not care about your opinions. Take care of your babies as it only gets worse with stbbings in middle school and no expulsion. Everyone passes. I support the teachers as they put up with alot. With no help from the board or the principals or super. Wego has one of the highest homeschooling groups around. Free and very involved. Reach out to your community and you will find out. Even teachers that work there homeschool their own children. Keep your children safe and stay aware of what is happening inside the school and on buses for their safety.

I went to grade school here the longest. I went to five overall. I attended 2nd through 7th grades…read morehere so pretty much "the" school of my youth. They took good care of my family and the other two families that had parental deaths when I attended here. The teachers were great here I learned a lot. I was scoring in the high 90th percentile sin everything on every test I took after I left here. I owe them big time for that. They challenged me. I was in town the day the church burned...I saw it all smoky and crispy. Sad, sad, sad. I had my first communion here too. My mother, two classmate's parents and my great-grandmother's funerals were here. I was an alter girl too when I was a kid. I used to run around the church after school. This is the place that put the fear of G-d in me and keeps me agnostic rather then atheist as I go through that whole "I'm an adult - know what" thing. The spiritual education I got here kept me on a fairly straight path most of my life... The new church is AMAZING, huge and endless. They tore down the rectory and the convent and now have what I think is the largest and most beautiful community faith centers I have ever seen.
